Special Olympics Virginia

2009 Polar Plunge
Training buddies: Keith

Kathy Starr's Fundraising Page

Hi Everyone! Thank you for visiting my page. For those of you who don't know my son Keith, he has Autism. He started playing soccer for the first time this year and had a blast. He went to the state championships at Virginia Beach in Nov. He won a silver medal. Boy, was I the proudest mama! He just started playing basketball a few weeks ago. He's doing great! Keith loves his books and dvds and has gotten really good at the computer. He'll be 12 in February and is now repeating the 5th grade. Next year, middle school. Oh My Goodness! I know you all think I'm nuts for going into freezing cold, but I'm doing it for a great cause, Keith. Who can resist that smile?! I know it's just after Christmas and money is tight for everyone. You don't have to donate alot and you can wait til just before I plunge to donate. It's not until Feb. 7th. Keith's birthday is the 4th, so I'm taking him with me for his birthday. Don't worry he won't go in the water, way to cold for him, but he LOVES THE BEACH. Thank you again for helping me to help Keith.

Thank you for visiting my extreme Personal Fundraising Page for Special Olympics Virginia's Polar Plunge 2009. Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure.
