Lance Armstrong will be our very special guest speaker. He will be sharing his personal story of fame, tragedy, and triumph. Lance is one of the most decorated and successful athletes in the history of sports, as well as a worldwide celebrity, and a cancer survivor. We are very privileged to have him here in Kansas City and as a part of our annual Luncheon at The American Royal. We sure hope you won't miss out on this tremendous opportunity.
 
Oklahoma Joes will be serving their award winning barbecue and Larry Moore from Channel 9 will be our master of ceremonies.
 
Lance is also bringing autographed TREK bicycles, an autographed and framed Tour de France Jersey, and an autographed Tour de France picture that will be auctioned off during the event to help raise funds for LiveStrong and The American Royal mission.
 
It's going to be a fun and very memorable day and we sure hope you can come and be a part of this historic event!
