A Night in Paris
A Night in Paris celebrated the extraordinary life and spirit of Tracey Gamer-Fanning, co-founder of CTBTA. A lifelong French enthusiast and foodie, the event also launched the Tracey Gamer-Fanning Memorial Scholarship, which supports students pursuing a career in the food industry.

Golf Tournament
CTBTA started in 2006 with a Golf Tournament, a successful event that was resurrected throughout the next decade. Over the years, the Golf Tournament was instrumental in helping us raise essential funds and spread awareness of our mission. The final Golf Tournament in 2014 raised more than $28,000, which supported our Patient Assistance Funds and Neuro-Team Support Program, helping patients and caregivers across the state.

Laughter on the Brain
Laughter on the Brain was an annual comedy night hosted by the Lemkuil family. Based on the concept that “laughter is the best medicine,” the event helped us sustain our Brain Tumor Research Program and Patient Assistance Funds.

Night of Hope
