Canoe Race
Today we changed things up a bit and rather than run, we paddled!! We raced in the Bloody Run Canoe Race from Bedford to Everett, PA. A nine mile race, we paddled hard! We gave it everything we had! We came in second to last. Our boat was not the fastest boat by any means, but we had a great time! I will have pictures up when I get home tomorrow! I wanted to get a video, but was afraid that my phone would end up floating down the river!
This puts us at 20 miles, as you can see to the right! We are shooting for $100 per mile in sponsors, and are not quite where we need to be right now, so if you would like to sponsor us please let me know! You can contact me by clicking on my name to the right. You may have to scroll down a bit! We are looking at this being a 15 day trip, in which case we need $50 per minute that we are there!
Also, this is coming Saturday is going to be HUGE!!! We will be at the God Bless America Festival in Everett, PA, running a Chicken Bar-B-Q booth! We will be there until 6pm. PLEASE COME OUT AND ENJOY A NICE CHICKEN DINNER!!!!!
