The 27^th Segal Classic is here on Friday, September 23! You help support Magee patients through the Segal Classic even if you can’t attend the event. One of the ways that money is raised for Magee patients through the Segal Classic is an impressive silent and live auction. You can bid on items online! Visit www.501auctions.com/SegalClassic to register for the auction, view the extensive list of items, and start bidding! Everything is in real time, so you can participate in all the action!
