    Yep, that time again. The team is registered for the walk. Walk on Sept 26.

    Ideas on fundraising?
    I really want to go big this year. As of Feb 2, I am now 20 years in remission. Let's go big this year. Hit up everyone you can. Going to see if we can get a roadblock date in spring. Yard sale is still possible. Any one working a con that is willing to put out a donation jar? Donation jar at work? School? Local business? Hit everything and everyone. If we do a roadblock, can we get the 501st or the Mando's on board? I can talk to Dar. Other ideas?
    The $5,000 bet is still on for this year

    Thanks for taking point on this again Vox and congratulations on 20 years in remission. But leukemia still needs it's butt kicked so let's do this!

    Looking into doing the yard sale again this year. So, start collecting things. Going to try to find the time to look into some charity events, like magic the gathering tourneys and stuff. You guys have any ideas?

    we are still doing this. Walk is in Sept. 26 or 24. I'll get back to you guys on that. Yard sale will be close to labor day weekend. I am working on some other fund raising. Let me know who might be able to do the yard sale, and who can do the walk.

    I'm willing to help with the yard sale again, just depends on the date and my availability. I've been setting stuff aside since last year's sale and I have quite a bit to donate. I'm not sure if I'll be able to make the walk yet either.

    I can help on Saturday the 12th. I'm busy Friday so I can't help with set up though. I need to make a time to get with you the week before and drop my stuff off. I'm bringing lots of excess Star Wars swag so y'all come on out and shop if you can't hang around long enough to help.

    i will be out of school that day. that would work. day of yard sale, it will be you, Becka, and Zannah. I am trying to be off that day, but I'm supervisor on the weekends, and that makes it tough to get off. I can only trade with other supervisors.

    Very successful and fun yard sale this weekend. I'll let Vox give the grand total when final numbers are in but early numbers look good. The rain held off with only one brief shower and the Star Wars stuff sold real well. Thanks again to Vox and Becka for all the hard work organizing everything and their parents for hosting us.

    Walk is this weekend. The wife is out of town and I won't be able to make it either but I hope we get some LGA representation out there.
