Gang Busters


A few weeks ago, Lindsey and I participated in the 1st official Training Walk Kick-off in Ft. Worth. We started at a New Balance store and walked around the Arlington Heights neighborhood for 3.5 miles. It was a bit misty that morning but it was an excellent walk. We even got to purchase a few things for a discount at the New Balance store afterwards. It was a great morning! This means that we are 6 months out from the walk and our training has officially begun - here we go!
We are going gang busters (old term, huh?) on our fundraising ideas and setting some things into place rather quickly. We have some meetings set up and phone calls or emails in place and we are really going to get things going this summer. Shannon has been selling candy bars for a donation to her teachers at work and even trying a box lunch idea to see how that would go. Lindsey is going to work on some "Think Pink" nights at a few local restaurants and we can see what pans out from that. We are also planning some bigger things in the near future and we will keep you posted - and invite you - when details have been ironed out.
