A Night For Jake

I've written a few times this summer about my friend Jake Wisniewski, the graphics coordinator on Devils telecasts.  Jake had a successful double lung transplant earlier this summer in his fight against cystic fibrosis.

There is a 2nd charity event in his honor--scheduled for Tuesday, September 6th (the day after Labor Day) in Manhattan between 7-10pm.

I hope that you can attend -- many sports celebrities have already said that they will be there -- Butch Goring, Brian Leetch and Ken Daneyko among them.  Many media personalities have already committed to attend as well, including Deb Placey, Steve Cangialosi, Al Trautwig, Matt Loughlin and John Giannone.

There's a poster of the event on my blog -- but you can also visit the Facebook page directly: http://www.facebook.com/pages/A-Night-for-Jake/143686762386026

Read all about it, in Jake's own words: http://cotaforjakew.com
 
Please help if you can!
