Some of you may know that Brian is doing a buddy ride in October. It is a 100 mile ride in central CA. Well Bri put up the site last at 10:30 PM last night and not even 12 hours later he raised over the minimum bid of $1,650.00. He sent out over 100 e-mails last night and this is the immediate reault. We will keep you posted as the final count.....this is so exciting! here is the link if you are interested in checking the totals yourself. Thanks for your interest! Kath and Bri

In exactly 12 hours Brian had raised 1,900 and two others that will donate at a later date. I guess two people cried at the bulk e-mail before donating. Glad to hear that people are touched!

The website doesn't totally reflect all the funds. There have been several people donate via e-mail or phone. We are up to 2,510.00 total. There have been so very positive responses to Brian's e-mails. I will have to share some of them on a different post. Brian raised the goal to 3,500 so that we can attend all the VIP functions. Apparently they made Avery an honorary VIP because she is a cutie and still too young to participate. So far so good!
