Thank you to all who have donated to Mary Bridge and this, the hardest of 5 Courage Classics I've done.  Makes one even more committed to the cause - helping KIDS in NEED -  698 riders have pledges to ride the 174 miles over Snoqualmie, Blewett and Stevens Passes.  NOW, it's estimated we'll bring in over $750,000 to the Rotary Endowment for the treatment of abused children.  Without help, those kids live with dark shadows the rest of their lives.   Our Community won't stand for the terrible cycle of children's physical and sexual abuse. 

       We're not done yet, won't you reconsider helping the cause?  Online below is easy but call me or mail me if you'd just like to write a tax deductible check payable to Mary Bridge Children's Hospital or the Courage Classic.     Thank you if you were crazy enough to contribute before ..........please consider getting even crazier!

PS: Jane Hostvedt of South Hill Rotary didn't ride this year!  But she's fund raising anyway for her imaginary friend, FLAT JANE www.firstgiving.com/hostvedt  ....... who hitched a ride on my bike and raised an additional $600+.   Don't ask me to explain it, we're just tryin' to raise money for the KIDS!
