Purple Cow Fundraiser

Yesterday was our fundraiser at The Purple Cow in Fairview. Unfortunately it snowed and was freezing cold weather, so people weren’t quite as inclined to go out. We raised about $125, which is less than we hoped but more than we had the day before, so no complaints. Every little bit will help as we donate these funds to Hogar de Vida Children’s Home for the construction of their security wall.

It was great to see lots of friends and visit with some we haven’t seen in a while. Thanks for all who came out in spite of the chilly weather!

Bowl-A-Thon

Thanks to the 17 bowlers who came out and everyone who contributed to our first fund raiser! It was a good start toward our goal of $15,000 for Hogar de Vida’s Security Wall. We raised $5,480 and donations are still coming in. It was a fun night with special prizes awarded to:

Craig Smith – highest fund raiser with $770
Rick Oetzel – highest bowling score of 382
Team Oetzel – highest team bowling score of 1044
