What They Said - Charleston, WV


We had over 450 people attend last year's Jim Dent Dinner,
Charleston's annual celebration of Health and Humor.

Here is what some of them said:


"I have attended three times and this was truly the best in every way.
We had a wonderful time!"

"A great event, for a great cause."

"I laughed till I cried. It feels so good to laugh together.
"

Our speaker this year is Southern humorist, Ralph Hood.
When Ralph Hood appeared on Oprah, she loved him.


And we would love to include you among our guests this year.
Join us for a great time of food, fun, and laughter.


Tickets are available now on-line

The Dent Dinner - Charleston WV


RH_JPEG_Standup 2Ralph Hood flies into the Dent Dinner
He may not be as tall as Jeannie Robertson, last year's Dent Dinner speaker, but he is just as funny. Ralph Hood makes his second appearance at the Dent Dinner on October 16, 2012

Oprah loves him
Ralph Hood, is well known in corporate circles throughout the country for his down-home Southern style of story-telling and humor.  Ralph was in the aviation business for many years and has engaging stories to tell: the good, the bad, the ugly, and always the funny. And to top it off, Oprah loves him. When he appeared on her show, she summed it up in six words: "Ralph Hood, you are a funny man."
 
Best of all, the event goes to a great cause
Kanawha Pastoral Counseling is dedicated to helping get the services they need for issues of depression, anxiety, anger, addiction, loss, and trauma.

Tickets are now available
We sold out last year, so get your tickets early.
You can buy them on-line: http://www.dentdinner.org

Reaching for the Gold


reaching_hands


Being the best at being yourself can sometimes be as hard work as being the best in an Olympic game. Being the best in your role as parent, spouse, co-worker, leader, takes inspiration, dedication and commitment, and skill and practice.

KPCC exists to help people have the best relationships with themselves and with others as they can. Our counselors are skilled guides and coaches, helping navigate the challenges that come with life.

Along with our professional counseling and executive coaching, KPCC also offers skill building workshops in communication and relationship enrichment. Our events for the coming month are found below.

Our goal is to help everyone reach for the gold in their lives!

Wishing you a great month!
