Participant:usa: Greg Welch has been thrown down on by a friend on the race simulator as to who will have the best times He is so sure he will kick butt that he will be running the event. As a perk he can now he can pick the car and the course. A dollar a try. GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE. A super prize to the winner with the best time.

ParticipantHere is a list of the raffle items available so far. Including the kids raffle.
If anyone would like to bring small items for the kids raffle, it would be great. Kids dvd, games or ?

ParticipantPotentially $10,545.00!!!!!! You guys and girls have worked very hard for a great cause. :clap: I look forward to watching the bidding process. We have our eyes on a couple of the packages and are willing to go big if necessary.
Hopefully Bob can muster up enough energy to drop in for a while. It would be good for everyone, especially him, but I know he is still very weak.
Stacey, or anyone else on the Western Slope. Call me if you want to place a bid on any item. I will keep my phone handy and a pen ready to write in your pledge.
See you all on Sunday.

ParticipantCan’t really tell you why it’s afraid of the glove Mikey! Maybe it’s the sequins on the palm. :cheers:

Participant:usa: I just talked to Bob. He sounded the best that he has sounded in a long time. We had a two dollar wager on the 150’s. I asked him what he was doing for the five-hundred. He said that he had no plans so I asked if I came and picked him up would he like to come an watch the race with me at the Skylark. He said that would be good for his cabin fever. He further said that he told Rick about going out with me so he might also come down to the lounge. I told him that I had a friend that was getting there early and he would save a space for us. Sue his wife is following us down so if he gets tired she can take him home. He also wanted me there by 12:30 so we didn’t miss anything. Is that a racer or what.

ParticipantHelp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My shipment for the kart has not made it to Rick yet. it is the stickers and wheels for the raffle kart. UPS shows no movement from GJ since tuesday night. I have started a tracer but do not want to take chances. is anyone from western slope going over the hill friday or worse case saturday?????
If so, I will gather up a new set of each tonight and get it to you any way I can late tonight or first thing in the morning. Rick, I will check and see if they can do a next day saturday delivery tomorrow it nobody is going that way but will need to know if the address will be the same for Saturday or if there is a better address to send it to.
Sorry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is so true Craig. We went and saw him last night, and I am starting to get a good glimps of the old bob back. It’s been great watching him move around and EAT!!! The smiles kept comming especially when he was mentioning his “plans” for the race. I kept my mouth shut and an extra large smile on my face.

ParticipantHere is a link to the Skylark Lounge, if you hadn’t seen it yet. This place is no dive. In fact it’s an awesome club.
Check it out http://www.skylarklounge.com/
Also, the link to the ekartingnews story http://www.ekartingnews.com/news_info.php?n=9567
We will have the capability to take credt cards, so if you don’t have cash, your set. We also set up an account at Wells Fargo “Bob Reed Fund Raiser” So you will be able to write off as a charitable contribution.
The schedule will follow shortly.
Thanks again for participating.

I spoke to him yesterday too. God it is good to hear some positive news come from him! He has put 5 lbs back on since last week. 45 lbs more to go! You can do it Bob.
Wait till he see’s the “friend” that is saving him a table!!! (provided he can make it) Makes me proud to be a part of this.
Also please keep checking back to the list of items as it is getting updated as items come in. Some more good ones coming in.
