This year I’m doing it! I’m going Over the Edge!
Last year when I worked on this event I had the privilege of being on the roof and hearing everyone’s story before they took their challenge. It was amazing to me why people went over the edge. To some it was a bucket list thing…to others it was to face a fear. But to almost everyone it was because they were touched by a Special Olympics athlete.
What is my story? First off…I’ve got to keep up with Ruth! Last year she had enough kahunas to do it…so now it’s my turn!
No really, I am doing this because I am inspired by all of the athletes I have come to know since helping out Special Olympics Montana. I’ve seen the courage it takes for athletes to compete…the continuing support of their family and friends…and the hours and hours of volunteer time that coaches and individuals put in…let alone the staff!
I hope that you will help me raise funds for my big adventure. Also, I hope you will come to Billings on August 23rd and cheer me on as I rappel down the tallest building in Montana. And if you know anyone that can help...please pass it along!
Be a fan…I am!
