## **World Records for World-Changing Research and Treatment**

We've all been affected by Cancer.

We all know somebody who has fought through cancer treatment, and many of us know people who have lost their battle.

I have been involved with what has become the World's Longest Games since our first event in 2003. We have built at least 4 hockey rinks and now a ball diamond, playing record-breaking games in an effort to raise money to put an end to cancer suffering

We have raised over $7.8 million since then, and are putting in a renewed effort for our first World's Longest Baseball game on home turf at Saikers Acres. From August 29th to September 2nd, I will be 1 of over 50 caring and courageous baseball players who will step up to the plate to challenge the Guinness World Record by playing in the 3rd edition of the World’s Longest Baseball Game - all while making a difference for cancer patients right here in Alberta.

We will be playing baseball for 100+ hours straight - rain or shine - with the goal of raising $300,000 in support of the Cure Cancer Foundation. All funds raised through the 2024 World’s Longest Baseball Game will go towards the purchase of an MR Sim at the Cross Cancer Institute. This state of the art equipment will change the way we detect, diagnose and treat cancer.

Thanks to the generosity through this baseball game, The University of Alberta researchers will continue to make strides in cancer research and improve the lives of patients and their loved ones.
