So as many of you know our group has expanded to an exercise group ! We try to get together and do some walking (so far) or some other kind of physical activity - it's been working great and we love it ! anyone is welcome to join us. So some of us have decided to particpate in the Jimmy Fund Walk-a-thon ! We're going to exercise and do something good at the same time !! Still plenty of time to join us ! Here is the link - copy and paste and join our team. You can walk 3 miles, 5 miles, 13.1 miles or 26.2 miles. $20.00 registration fee and have to raise a minimum of $250.00 in sponsors - which we are happy to help with via fundraising.

Can't wait for the yard sale!!

Lisa - there was a post on the main board about what people do with their old protein powder tubs. This got me thinking and I did a little arts & crafts for the yard sale. I took an old tub and made it into a donation tub. If people don't see anything they want to buy at the sale they can still make a donation! I'll drill a hole in the top so people can spare some change or a dollar or two! Thought this might be a good idea if some people don't buy anything!

THANK YOU LISA FOR ORGANIZING THIS!!!

AWESOME idea!

Any and all advertising should highlight that it's a CHARITY yard sale!
