FEATURED SPEAKER FOR BOYS & GIRLS CLUB “THANKS4GIVING GALA” ON NOV 21.

The Boys & Girls Club of  the Ozarks is proud to present Terry Bradshaw as the keynote speaker for the 2013 Thanks4Giving Gala on Thursday, November 21 at the Hilton Branson Convention Center. He is the only NFL player with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, Bradshaw continues to defy an easy pigeonhole. Four-time Super Bowl champion quarterback (Pittsburgh Steelers), two-time Super Bowl MVP and Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee. Multi-Emmy and award-winning broadcaster for FOX on Fox NFL Sunday. Enduringly popular actor, most recently in the box office smash comedy/ romance Failure to Launch. Add to that gospel/country singer, motivational speaker, New York Times best-selling author, breeder of championship quarter horses…

No one can spiral them into the end zone like Bradshaw…

The first player chosen in the 1970 draft, the 6’3” Bradshaw became one of the most prolific

quarterbacks in history. He was the first quarterback to win four Super Bowl championships (1975,1976, 1979 and 1980), making him a perfect 4-0 Super Bowl play, an extraordinary feat that has only been duplicated once, 10 years later, by Joe Montana. In those four performances, he completed 49of 84 attempted passes (nine for touchdowns) for 932 yards (second all-time), with just three interceptions while amazingly calling his own plays, something rarely done when Bradshaw played and unheard of in today’s NFL. He still holds the Super Bowl passing records for average gain per attempt in career (11.10 yards) and average gain in a game (14.71 yards in Super Bowl XIV).Bradshaw, a two-time Super Bowl MVP (Super Bowls XIII and XIV), was a four-time All-Pro.  He retired prior to the 1984 season.

“The Boys & Girls Club of the Ozarks, the kids and parents we serve, and our community is blessed to have an organization like CoxHealth as our event sponsor for the second year in a row.” said Billy Rader, CEO of the Boys & Girls Club of the Ozarks.

“We are very grateful to CoxHealth for believing in our mission and are very honored to have them as a community partner.” said Rader.

CoxHealth, in a grand show of support for Boys & Girls Club of the Ozarks, has generously sponsored the featured speaker for the second year in a row. 

“At CoxHealth, our mission is to improve the health of the communities we serve, and we live this mission broadly,” said Steve Edwards, CoxHealth president and CEO. “Healthy communities need more than the quality health care we are proud to provide – they need organizations working together to meet the needs of those who need help the most. That is why we are happy to again support the good work of the Boys & Girls Club of the Ozarks, and to bring Terry Bradshaw’s motivational message to our friends and neighbors in the Tri-Lakes region.”
