Each team completed against the others to see who could achieve the greatest range.

Saturday, September 16, 2006

I'm putting in more from my own pocket this year, but, I want to see if even more money can be raised. So, here is my plan. If I raise $5,000 for the Walk to D'Feet ALS this year I will shave my head, and maintain it, till January 1st 2007. That is just 100 people donating less than $50 each. I say less than because I've already received $320 in contributions. And since your contributions are going directly  to the ALS Association they are tax deductible (check with your tax advisor and the ... [There is more. Click on the title above.]
