Team Spike Wins LIVESTRONG Team Champion Award
09 July 2010
After a heated weeks-long battle with Team Anti-Oxidant, Team Spike finally pulled away in the last few days of fundraising to earn the LIVESTRONG Challenge Team Champion Award. The team set a goal of $40,000 but towards the end upped it to $45,000 and as of July 19th, have raise almost $48,000! THANK YOU to the entire hard-working team, donors, volunteers and sponsor who contributed!
Team Anti-Oxidant was a driving force in the competitive spirit, of course, but this year Team Spike Co-captain Sherilyn Dahl wanted to win this award to honor the memory of her friend and co-worker, Janna Middleton. Janna lost her fight with stage 4 brain cancer last month, and many of her Symantec co-workers and friends donated in her memory. She was a caring, energetic mother of two who will be missed by many - in this small way, we hope to honor her fighting spirit, her winning attitude and her care for others.
Twenty-one members of the team accepted the award at the Challenge Awards Dinner on Saturday night at Charlie's Cafe on the Google campus, where we celebrated Living Strong with other fundraisers, teams and the Lance Armstrong Foundation staff.

Team Spike Cancer Survivors Tell Their Stories
Donors, Sponsors and Friends Help Raise $10,250
This year’s annual fundraiser event put on by Team Spike in support of the Lance Armstrong Foundation netted a record $10,250 – pushing the total amount raised to over $35,000 (and counting!) for the San Jose Challenge to date. This year is in special honor of the memory of Janna Middleton who lost her battle with brain cancer in June.
Sixty-eight guests enjoyed cocktails and Polynesian appetizers at Trader Vic's in Palo Alto while perusing the 45 silent auction items or buying raffle tickets to stuff the bowl for their chosen items. There were several bidding wars (wine was hot as usual, as was the Warbird flight and the SF Giants Luxury Suite) but hottest bidding war was for the framed photographic art of the Golden Gate bridge generously donated by Jennifer McDonald (www.urbanobscura.com).
Special thank you to our event sponsors:
