08-11-10: Adelanto, CA - American Spirit Network Spokesperson and Radio Personality Tommy Diamond was diagnosed on Friday with Cancer after spending a week at Desert Valley Hospital in Hesperia, Calif. In light of this unforeseen turn of events, American Spirit Network and its family of companies has made the decision to postpone the Route 66 Autorama and Lifestyle Expo that was scheduled to take place over Labor Day Weekend on September 4 & 5.

"With the strong support of our sponsors, advertisers and marketing partners, we have been encouraged to move the event to spring 2011," Diamond said. "I am grateful and overwhelmed at the outpouring of support I have already received and would like to thank everyone for the kindness and compassion they have shown as I prepare for the medical journey ahead."

With a positive outlook, Diamond is scheduled to check into Loma Linda University Medical Center later this week to explore treatment options and surgical procedures.

Autorama organizers are looking at tentative spring dates to reschedule the event that will include a festival-like celebration of Americana, Route 66, old-fashioned tradition, classic cars, food, entertainment and family fun including a televised Parade of Patriots. Details and updates will be posted at www.tommydiamond.net as they become available.

"The American Spirit Network team will keep the public informed and has pledged to remain committed to my goal of raising awareness for my extended family of children with autism and the mentally challenged,"
Diamond said.
