Fisher Hosts Gala and Football Camp
You must be registered for see images


Over the weekend, Cardinals linebacker Levar Fisher returned to his hometown of Beaufort, North Carolina to host a two-day fund-raising event to benefit Fisher of Men, a foundation he began in 2002.

The Fisher of Men 2nd annual fundraising gala was held on Friday, June 25 at the Sheraton in Atlantic Beach. Fisher, along with his Cardinals teammates Marcel Shipp, Kenny King, Coby Rhinehart, Quentin Harris, Indianapolis Colts David Thornton, and several former teammates from NC State enjoyed dinner, dancing, games, and a live silent auction.

“We were expecting to sell at least 100 tickets, but we exceeded our numbers because over 250 people showed up for the event,” said Fisher. “It was something I wanted to do for my hometown and we were able to raise a lot of money, which we’ll put to great use, and I’m just really pleased with the turnout.”

The funds will go towards supporting the foundation’s mission of fighting homelessness in Carteret County and the operation of a transitional housing unit in Morehead City. The house currently accommodates 6 homeless women and their children and the goal is to eventually provide an emergency shelter which can house 30 to 50 men, women and children.

The weekend continued with the 4th Annual Levar Fisher Football Camp held at East Carteret High School on Saturday morning.

Fyi

There were about 220 participants in the free FOOTBALL Camp on Saturday morning. They were separated into position groups where they received instuction from (1) Marcel Shipp, Kenny King, Coby Rhinehart, and Quentin Harris (Cardinals); (2) Freddie Aughtry-Lindsay, Dovonte Edwards and Andre Maddox (NC STATE); and (3) the coaching staff of East Carteret High School.

BTW, I had the winning bid (silent auction) on a FOOTBALL signed by Dexter Jackson....
:D

Curious do you think Levar is going to play this year? How's his knees doing? Thanks in advance. I hope he recovers we could use him. :thumbup:

I would be very surprised if Levar doesn't play. He has not complained a single time about his knees during his workouts with me. He tells me that he feels great.
