Hi Everyone,
Wow, I can't believe it's been 3 months since I last posted. Jeez, I've really been a slacker. I've sat here quite a few times, but never could get myself to post. Sitting at this computer and reading all the caringbridge and carepage sites can be pretty traumatic. There are just way to many children and families suffering. I've been getting my therapy by offering support to other families via guest book messages, but in the mean time I've been neglecting My Andrew's site. I need to get back on track.
The Parkway Run was this past Sunday, I just didn't have it in me to do it full force this year. A few of us did go up. When I got there I was feeling guilty that we didn't have a tent this year. NEXT YEAR! I want to thank those people who braved the rain and walked in Honor of Andrew. It meant a lot to Neil and I.
We are having our 2nd Annual Andrew Noten Hudson Golf Tournament on Sunday October 12th at Mayslanding Country Club. We are still looking for golfers, hole sponsors, and items to use in a Chinese auction. Any volunteers to help would be greatly appreciated. Any one who can help us by going to local business' and asking for prizes to use in the raffle or gift certificates would be a big help. Or if you belong to an organization that could donate a theme gift basket, that would also be great. Please spread the word. There is going to be a dinner after the golf outing, around 5:30, even if you're not golfing you can come out buy some raffle tickets, eat, drink, and have a great time all in the name of a good cause. If any one is interested in golfing, we are just going to charge the early registration price of $100. and price for eating is just going to be either $25 or $30. There have been only a few people (Beth and Donna) who have really been helping, we need more people if we want to match or beat our goal of $10,000. When Andrew was sick, people always said " If there is anything we can do for you, please let us know" Neil and I hope that offer still stands. There is a flyer about the tournament on Andrew's web site ( Lucas had the site redone, its not quite finished, but its looking good), you can print out copies from there and get more info. We also have 50/50 tickets we are selling, if anyone thinks they can sell some let us know. Our #'s are on the flyer or you can email us at ringosaki@netscape.net Andrew's web address is www.hurricaneandrewhudson.com
We did set up a fundraising page for the Parkway Run, if anyone wants to donate through that it is still an option, the link for that can be found on Andrew's web site.
Thanks for all your support,
Love, Jackie, Neil, Tyler and Our Angel Andrew
