Dear Friends & Fans of Special Olympics Montana,

This THURSDAY, I will go "Over the Edge" for Special Olympics Montana.  Over the Edge is a unique fundraiser that invites people to rappel down the face of Montana's tallest building - the First Interstate Bank Tower in Billings - for the benefit of more than 2,000 Special Olympics Montana athletes and for the opportunity to serve 10,000 more eligible people with intellectual disabilities in this great state.

Thanks to the generosity of many cool sponsors - Special Olympics Montana has exclusive access to the top of this building so "edgers" can rappel 19 stories and 265 feet from top to bottom.  To rappel the distance and reach the ground, I need your help.... 

Might you make a pledge today? Simply visit my pledge site at: http: www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/john-parkes/OTE to make a donation.  It's simple, fast and secure.  It is also the most efficient way to support my fundraising efforts.  All funds raised stay in our great state of Montana. 

 

Thanks for joining me in helping to take the edge off the challenges Special Olympics Montana athletes experience everyday to live full and meaningful lives! 

 

-John Parkes, SOMT Board of Directors
