I am donating a small pop/snack/candy basket [worth about $15] to the DADBA effort.
All monies raised for this raffle will go to the DADBA team's donation to AMC.
Tickets are $2. You need not be present to win.
Blessings,
Linda

The day was awesome! The sun shined and the breeze kept us cool.
My sister Barb Sikora and her two daughters, Sherri and Jenny, came to walk with me. We walked and walked.
We enjoyed the nice day!
I went back this morning to help clean up, but we were pushed aside by the lightening and rain. Glad it was at the end of the 24 hour, and not the beginning.
Blessings,
Linda

Thank you, Laura, for being a fantastic team captain! I spent some time there yesterday and it was great. I really enjoyed the Fight Back rally which encouraged all of us to take action to stop cancer. I went this morning to help clean up, but I was too late and everyone was packed up and gone for the day. Kudos to Laura for encouraging all of us to do our part and for being such a good example of what a difference one person can make in a community.

Sorry we missed you Leanna...They had us start packing up at 6am due to the T-Storms & Lightening.
YES, Laura was a great Team Captain and I look forward to participating in this event again next year. This being our first time for our team we learned some do's & dont's and can improve on that for another successful Relay to fight Cancer.

 This was such a great beacon for the DADBA site at the event. Good job Karen! Thanks again to Laura for all the hard work organizing it! It was very moving for myself, several family and friends who have won their battle this year. |

It was great to walk for such a cause [even though I later learned that I had walked the wrong path several different times], it was worth it.  Plus it was good to spend time with Karen Fritz..she and hubby, Paul put a lot of effort into things. Blessings, Linda |

I was really glad to be there and take a small part in the Relay for a few hours Saturday. And, I really enjoyed being able to have Cate with me, and expose her to something like that, even though she doesn't really understand yet.
Karen, I'll take some pretzels--wish I had read this before I bought two bags at the grocery store today! I didn't see if you posted how much was a case?
