As mentioned earlier, I was racing a friend in our Animal Humane Society fundraising - The first to $500. Well, I'm both happy and sad to announce that she beat the pants off of me! I'll be honest, I never thought for one minute that she would beat me. She only raised $200 last year so this was a huge increase for her and in a bad economy. But to her credit, she not only beat me in just 5 days, she has now raised her goal to $750 and has agreed to double her original goal next year to $1000!!! So while I lost the race, I am happy that the animals benefit in a big way for her efforts. Thanks Sarah, that was fun!
My goal is still $1250 and I hope, like Sarah, that I can increase that number in the coming weeks. You have lots of time to donate. I don't need to collect until the Wed. before the walk, so around April 29th I think. If you want to donate online and save some paperwork for the Humane Society (and environmentally friendly!) click the link below.

Look for me under "Find a Participant"
If you prefer to write a check, make it out to Animal Humane Society, and send to my home address. If you need that address, please e-mail me...I don't like to publish it online.
Thank you so much to the people who already donated, we are at about $400 so far! A long way from our goal, but I think we can do it!

Thanks for the props Molly! I still can't believe how generous people were this year! I also think I put in a lot more effort this year. I am looking forward to our challenge next year of $1000!!! :)
