My personal message:

Thank you for visiting! This event lets me combine two things I love: sailing and the Special Olympics. Many of you know that my niece Anna has Down Syndrome; she's a little young to participate in the Special Olympics yet but she is such a shining light in the world that I am sure she will be a star when she does.

Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support my fundraising efforts. The site does take a small portion of the fees to cover credit card processing costs--it seems reasonable to me, but if you would rather contribute directly, please let me know and you can send a check.

Many thanks for your support -- feel free forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!

Love, Linda
