help matt help others



Matt has a challenge for us. If 100 tickets to the Liz Logelin Foundation Gala can be sold by tomorrow, September 4th, he'll shave his large and impressive beard. As most of you know, this foundation helps young widows and their families financially at a very hard time.


I will do anything to help this awesome foundation that has also helped me! I actually think I forgot to mention that $500 from the Pirate Ball was donated to the LLF when I went to San Diego.


So, please, if you can, buy a ticket, make a donation or sign up for the 5K run.


As a side note: I don't want to rain on Matt's beard, but Jeff's beard was a tad more impressive when he had decided to wait for his birthday one year to trim it up.....People asked "Why?" He just said, "Because I can."

Jackie,

I wish you could come to the gala!

I've been undecided about attending b/c I'm such an introvert, but your post today helped me decide to go for it -- thanks!

Being close to the gala and able to attend is one more reason to count myself lucky to be a Minnesotan.

I feel like I should say something - but I'm at a loss for words...so I won't!

Except this~ Jill - Those of us who WILL be at the Gala will seek you out and make you join in the fun! It's going to be a great time! Just you wait and see!
