M*A*S*H fans flocked to the Cottage at Valley Forge Flowers to meet Loretta Swit, aka Hot Lips Houlihan.

The star: A longtime artist and animal rights activist, Swit, now 79, came to Wayne June 29 to sign copies of Switheart: The Watercolour Artistry & Animal Activism of Loretta Swit. Fetched from New York by a Valley Forge Flowers staffer, Swit was reportedly “lovely” and raved about the antiques and collectibles at the Cottage.

Braving steamy temps, throngs of sarcoma warriors, survivors, their families and friends – 1,300 strong – walked or raced through Wilson Farm Park in Chesterbrook on June 11.

The teams: Identifiable by their custom tees, at least 30 teams turned out for the 5K chip-timed race and one-mile walk, many led by people battling sarcoma on crutches, wheelchairs and with prosthetic limbs.

Gang green: Some 80 family and friends wore green t-shirts in honor of Pat Maher of Devon, who tragically lost a four-year-battle with sarcoma last June at age 47. Pat led his green-shirted team in the first Steps to Cure Sarcoma event two years ago.

The hometown hero host: Conestoga ’06 star and Ewing’s sarcoma survivor Mark Herzlich, 29, who will play his 7th season for the New York Giants this fall.

Hatted hopefuls bling it on for “Jewels of Devon” Ladies Day contest

The gathering: Ladies paid $65 in advance, $80 at the door for light bites, live music, “Devontinis” and bubbly, and goody bags that included tickets to a long list of raffle prizes donated by Country Fair vendors. Just over 130 ticketholders picked up paddles to compete in the contest. A bit of a headache in recent years, party crashers were kept out by a barricade of picnic tables and volunteers checking wristbands.

The venue: Calimigos Guest Ranch, once a filming site for TV’s The Biggest Loser.

The Dress: Looking as stunning as she did when she left Philly for a job at KNBC in LA back in 2009, Alycia, 44, designed her own gown: an illusion-bodice, silk taffeta chiffon and tulle confection with deep v-cut and cap sleeves.

A red tide washed over Aronimink Golf Club April 5 when a few hundred women turned out for “Paint the Town Red,” a shopping social.

The cause: Raising awareness and funds for the Women’s Heart Initiative at Lankenau Heart Institute. (Fun fact: The Heart Institute has 13 women cardiologists, the most in the region. Girl power! )

Why are so many seeing red? Main Line Health’s Women’s Heart Initiative is spreading the word far and wide that heart disease – not cancer – is women’s #1 killer so gals need to get savvy about their heart health.
