[Woodcarver] Whillock Carve-Fest cancelled

[Doug Mann]

Marnie, you continue to be in our prayers.  My wife had the most  aggressive protocol for her breast cancer 14 years ago.  Her  cancer was also very aggressive and had spread.  The aggressive  treatment worked wonders...today she wishes you the very best in your  success beating this beast!   Doug & Cathie Mann, AZ.

    We&#8217;re sorry to tell you this news - my family and I have decided  to cancel Carve-Fest 2006.  It was  scheduled for Labor Day weekend in Faribault,   MN.   
     
    As many of you know, we discovered that I have cancer again.  The type of cancer I have this time is  quite aggressive, and it had spread.   The tumors have been removed, but there could still be lingering cancer  cells.  For this reason I will be  having two very aggressive kinds of chemo beginning soon.  This treatment will continue for six  months.  I just won&#8217;t be able  to put much time and energy into planning and marketing Carve-Fest.  We don&#8217;t want to have a festival  that is only done half as well as it could be, so it is better to reschedule  for another year.  After I have  kicked this cancer out of my life completely, we will have a huge, well-done festival!!
     
    We hope that this doesn&#8217;t inconvenience you! 
     
    Please feel free to send this message to anyone who may have been  planning to attend &#8211; we appreciate your help in spreading the word.
     
        Have a great day!
