Connecting
Point of Park Cities (CPPC) is pleased to announce “Staubachs Connect,” the
second Annual Connecting Point of Park Cities Luncheon, taking place January
23, 2015, at the Frontiers of Flight Museum. Marianne and Roger Staubach will
be the featured speakers, and join Luncheon Co-Chairs Hollee and Rick Mills to
help raise critical funds for Connecting Point of Park Cities. CPPC is an
all-inclusive day program for adults with disabilities and offers a wide range
of educational, vocational, social and recreational services for adults with
special needs.
Kicking
off at noon, the Staubachs will take the stage for an interview with Scott
Murray, chairman and CEO of Murray Media and host of Conversations with Scott
Murray and Texas Daily. The luncheon also will feature a silent and live
auction with more than 20 signed items by Staubach, including a signed football
with his Super Bowl dates, jerseys and other memorabilia. Proceeds raised from
the luncheon will enable CPPC to continue to build and expand within the
community.
Marianne
Staubach grew up in Cincinnati, Ohio, but has called Dallas home for 45 years.
She is active in the Dallas community and currently serves on the board of
advisors of the Jesuit College Preparatory School, the Catholic Foundation
Board of Advisors and volunteers as a Meals on Wheels driver. In years past,
Marianne served on the Catholic Foundation Board from 1996 to 2004 and on the
Visiting Nurse Association Board.
Roger
Staubach served in the United States Navy before joining the Dallas Cowboys
professional football team in 1969 while simultaneously launching his real
estate career. He led the Cowboys to victories in Super Bowl VI and Super Bowl
XII and was named the Most Valuable Player of Super Bowl VI. Currently, Roger
is the executive chairman of America’s Jones Lang LaSalle, a global real estate
advisory firm. In his personal life, Roger continues to be involved with The Children’s
Cancer Fund, the United States Naval Academy Foundation and numerous other
civic, charitable and professional organizations. Marianne and Roger have five
children, 15 grandchildren and one great grandson.
“There
is a staggering lack of opportunities for adults with disabilities, so they are
often confined to the home and do not have meaningful opportunities to grow and
learn,” said Connecting Point of Park Cities President Sarah Oliai.
Individual
tickets for the luncheon are $150.00 each and sponsorship opportunities begin
at $750. For tickets or sponsor information, please contact Hollee Mills at
