We had another team donation come in, another $250.00. That brings us to $2,250.00 and the second place team collected $2560!!! We are awesome!!!

Andy and I are contemplating if we want to volunteer to work at the Relay next year, we have the phone number of the lady to contact. We had some good ideas come up in discussion and thought maybe our input would put a new spin on the Relay and hopefully get more people involved, especially overnight. Most teams packed up and only maybe 5 teams were there overnight, sometimes there were only 4-5 people walking. I can't say we constantly had someone walking, but we were there. The contests they had overnight were fun, but with so few people around, they didn't even do some of them. I guess I just saw a lot of room for improvement and thought they could use someone to step in and suggest new, fun ideas that would keep people at the Relay.

Will let everyone know what we decide.

Next week is Ice Cream Days in Le Mars so I'm going to brainstorm and see if there's something we could maybe pull together during that.

Also had the idea last night that it would be fun if the Relay would start up a Relay for Life basketball or softball or volleyball league, where us teams would compete against each other. Would get people involved and active. Again, just ideas that pop into my brain.

Well, everyone have a nice week! We bought a cheap-o popup camper last night so hoping to get some camping done this summer. Can't believe it's June 6 already!!

Take care,
Shelly
