Hello
Ted- Just an update on the Jeremiah Mitchell benefit at The Rock Gym today...
Between the Silent Auction, Sponsorship of the lifters, and all the Wal-mart Giftcards
we collected, we raised about $5000 for the Mitchell family. The 1,00,000
pound lift went better than expected and because we had 18 lifters and only 1
person adding up the totals, we ended up lifting 1,500,000 in 64 minutes. Thank
you to all the lifters, those who helped throughout the day and all the businesses
that donated items for the Silent Auction. -- Bob Ozug <>< | Previous
