March 15, 2012 - LOWER MERION TOWNSHIP – Main Line School Night and Lower Merion School District invite you to Lower Merion High School on Monday, April 9th at 7 pm for a free lecture by Jothy Rosenberg, author, extreme athlete, TV host and two-time cancer survivor. Come hear a talk for everyday people from an everyday person about how to overcome any challenge and triumph over unbearable odds. We guarantee you will be fired up and inspired to replace "I Can't" with "I CAN!"  

Rosenberg will speak on the art of resiliency, finding inspiration in unlikely places and overcoming obstacles. Learn about his personal experience and how he turned his unexpected death sentence, which came in high school, into opportunity. The discussion is geared toward adults, and is appropriate for middle school age students and above.

A world-class athlete, successful entrepreneur and life-affirming human being, Jothy's message is for everyone. He addresses human perseverance, adaptability and tapping into your own strength. He will discuss how one cannot only survive, but also fight back, recover, and thrive. He will also show a video of some extreme sports segments, many of which are drawn from his TV show pilot.

The talk will be held in the Large Group Instruction Room 100, at LMHS.  Registration is not necessary for this event.
