I can't thank everyone enough for the support that you have shown for my efforts at making this year's campaign a success.

Once I meet that number, I will stop posting current totals. I want the total to be a surprise come December. However, if anyone wants to question it at any time, I will gladly show you what I have taken in and where I stand.

If anyone knows of a business that would like to make a cash donation or purchase bikes, please let me know or send them in my direction.
