Dear AJ,

THANK YOU!!! On behalf of The Bob Beamon Golf & Tennis Classic, Bob Beamon, our Make-A-Wish guest, our winning bidders and the children at The Children's Place at Home Safe I would like to thank you very much for your time on May 12, 2003 at the private dinner you hosted at the Boca Resort & Club.

You may recall you were a once-in-a-lifetime auction item at our 2002 event in that you had agreed through Bill Fernandez to host a private dinner party for our winning bidders. The $5,000 the winning bidders paid to have the exciting opportunity to have dinner with you went a long way towards helping many abused, abandoned, neglected and even HIV+ children in Palm Beach County.

It is only through the generous support of celebrities like you that we can help many kids take the leap into life through the proper care, education and housing of so many children in need. It takes a great deal of resources to make this happen and because of you we were able to get that much closer to our goal.

Our winning bidders Scott Adams and Greg Talbott who are also longtime supporters of ours were absolutely thrilled by your charm and friendly attitude with their children and guests. The kids are still talking about the fact that you even sang a song for them! They said you went way out of your way to make them feel special and that you stayed longer then what was expected and gave of yourself in ways that they could not imagine. They were extremely pleased as are we that you were so accommodating.

AJ we really want to sincerely thank you very much. The Bob Beamon Golf & Tennis Classic 2003 takes place on October 16-17, 2003 if you would like to play golf in one of our corporate foursomes you are more than welcome to do so. I believe Bill indicated that you sometimes golf with Alice Cooper and we would love to have him there too. You and Alice can sign up on our website at www.beamonclassic.org if you would like to join us.

All the best,

Christine T. Santoro
Executive Director
