Relay update

We had originally planned on having a two day fundrasising event for our team. BUT.... the relay for life committee decided to hone in on our action lol. They made a huge yardsale for all the teams at the same time so we graciously rearranged our time and shuffled everything into one day.
we did awesome!!!
The weather wasn't as cooperative as we would have liked it to be but thankfully it compromised with us enough that there was no rain. Over a two day period we managed to raise roughly $400. Nice eh? woot woot way to go Ribbons 'N' Ink.
Sunday we helf all our festivities here in my back yard we had a sucker poll for the kids, a fish pond for kids, bbq, bake sale table, tons of free will offering items and even face painting.
The picture shown is of our free will offering jar and one of the mugs our team captain Alana Wilson did up.
we are selling our mugs year round for $5 a mug. This one has various teas and various hot chocolates along with a rice krispie treat. All of the proceeds go back into our team. We are sponsored by the county fair mall in new minas who graciously paid our regersation fee for the relay and already we have raised more then last years team.
We also want to once again thank K-rock the valley's classic rock station for their support over the weekend and promoting us over the airwaves K-rock you rock!
