Last night was a fundraising slide show for Learn for Life. We had about 150 people in a venue made for 100 so it was standing room only, and due to the generosity of everyone in attendance, we raised $1270. This amount will pay for one year's tuition for one of the students.....awesome!!!! Thanks to everyone who came out for the evening. Some travelled a long distance, some came after working a 12 hour shift and there were so many friends that I haven't see for years.
It was a wonderful evening. So many people made an effort to come out to support Learn for Life, see the slide show of Everest and visit with friends.I also have to say a huge thank you and appologize to everyone who showed up and couldn't get in because there wasn't enough room. We will have a second showing on July 20th.....the location to be determined soon.....I think that we may have to find a larger venue than originally planned!!!!
