Jeanne Cooper, will be in West Texas this month to celebrate the ground breaking festivities for the new Inpatient Treatment facility for The Springboard Center. She will be accompanied by another cast member. "As our national spokeswoman and a passionate supporter of treatment for addictive disease, Ms. Cooper is hoping to use this as an opportunity to promote quality treatment rather than high dollar retreats for the rich and famous," said Tim Baker, executive director of Springbroad. CBS-7 will launch a contest today which asks participants to send in an essay concerning their interest in the TV show "The Young and The Restless," but also comment on Ms. Cooper's passion for the education and treatment of addictive disease, Baker said. "The winner will get to join Ms. Cooper for lunch at the Midland Racquet Club along with another cast member and Tatum Hubbard and Jay Hendrix of CBS-7. The contest runner-up will get a Friday afternoon of the 25th of January complete makeover by Ms. Cooper's personal and well known Hollywood stylist, Gino Columbo."
Groundbreaking on Jan. 25 is at 11 a.m., lunch is at noon at the Racquet Club, autograph session at CBS-7 is set for at 2:20 p.m. and the makeover is at 3 p.m. at CBS-7.
"Ms Cooper and her other friends take time off from filming during this trying time with the writers strike, totally pro bono, all because Ms Cooper convinces them it is worth it," Baker said.
