Thanks for dropping by!

I'll be hiking Mount Baldy on Saturday, July 3rd to fundraise for the American Foundation for Children With AIDS's "Climb Up The 50" event.
 

These tax-deductable donations will go toward providing medicine, food, and medical and humanitarian supplies to hospitals in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Kenya, Zimbabwe, and Uganda, for the treatment of children with AIDS - as well as their mothers and caretakers.

I know things are tight for all of us right now - I made my goal fairly modest because of this. So if you can afford it, kick down a few bucks! If you can't pledge dollars, keep the kids in your prayers!

The hike up Mt. San Antonio (Mt. Baldy) gains about 4k feet of elevation in about 5 miles (ouch), topping out at a whopping 10,064 feet... All to kick off a three day weekend. So, if you don't like me, donate, it is guaranteeing me pain, and killing a three day weekend for me.

Also, I would like to thank Casey of ModernHiker.com for putting this together, if anyone in the SoCal area would like to hike this for themselves go to his site and see how to register. www.modernhiker.com/2010/06/18/charity-hike-update/

 

Thanks again!
