Track Legend Jackie Joyner-Kersee Speaks at the Lou and Mary Henson Community Breakfast

Just months out from this summer's Olympic games, one ex-Team USA star will fire up one local community.  Track legend Jackie Joyner-Kersee is speaking at the 8th annual Lou and Mary Henson Community Breakfast on April 14th.

The breakfast will be held at 7 a.m. at the New Mexico Farm & Ranch Heritage Museum in Las Cruces.  It raises money for the Las Cruces Boys & Girls Fund.

Sponsorship packages for the event range from $500-$5000.  All sponsors will get VIP tickets to a cocktail reception for Joyner-Kersee.

Sports Illustrated named Joyner-Kersee "The Greatest Female Athlete of the 20th Century".  Overall, she accumulated six Olympic medals over four different Games.

Joyner-Kersee broke onto the Olympic stage in 1988, winning gold medals in heptathlon and long jump in Seoul.  She also won four World Championship medals in her career.

Joyner-Kersee still holds the heptathlon world record and is second on the all-time long jump chart.  She has devoted her post-competitive life to philanthropy and serves on the Board of Directors for USA Track & Field as well.
