In celebration of my 8th year since being diagnosed with a brain tumor I have set out to climb to the Base Camp of Mount Everest and raise $8,000 help the Children's Brain Tumor Foundation help children, teens, and young adults with brain tumors.  $8,000 will enable 15 young brain tumor survivors to find hope and encouragement at camp.

As a brain tumor survivor myself, I believe strongly in this cause and hope you can help!.  Please join the effort by donating even a small amount you can afford.

Here is a link to a local news story covering this adventure: http://www.kpax.com/player/?video_id=6516.

My training for this great adventure has included running the Missoula Marathon and riding in Ratpod, a 130 mile bike ride around the Pioneer Mountains in Montana (a fundraiser for Camp Mak-A-Dream).  I have been playing on 2 soccer teams this summer climbing around Missoula whenever I get a spare moment!

October 5th I am off for Nepal and 18,000 feet of elevation!

Thanks so much for joining me in this great adventure! 

If it is easier for you to make a donation by check, checks can be made out to CBTF and mailed to:
