On Nov. 1 Over the Edge for Brain Cancer was held at the Manchester Grand Hyatt to raise funds to end brain cancer. Participants rappelled 365 ft. over the Manchester Grand Hyatt, the city’s tallest waterfront hotel. Among the 82 participants for the two-day event were Papa Doug Manchester and Stephanie Brown. The Rick Oehme Foundation was the presenting sponsor. Others included the Manchester Grand Hyatt, U-T San Diego, Heritage Senior Care, Brian Bash, The Case Foundation, Genentech, The Tug McGraw Foundation and Mesa Rim Climbing and Fitness Center were sponsors. The $207,000 raised will go for Accelerate Brain Cancer Cure to be directed to San Diego-based brain cancer research.
