What a weekend that was!

On Saturday night we celebrated Christmas in July at Club Cutlass with Dusk Griswold providing the tunes and we raised about L$134k. This breaks the previous Club Cutlass record for RFL of L$104k set a little over a year ago, also with Duskl Griswold spinning. And the answer to the other teams is, NO she is OURS :)

Our current toal is L$2,100,718 and climbing:)

On the campsite front--things are falling into place. It is going to be spectacular indeed!

Thanks to EVERYONE who has made our Redheaded PASSION so visible this year!

WOW!

While I was away you all raised over L$200,000 -- maybe I should leave again LOL

Couldn't do that though, with relay coming so soon. Thanks to Sabine I could see pictures of our events while I was away, including the beautiful RenFaire organized by Rita Mariner. Merci Rita!

Now on to the present! We had a fabulous weekend with two major events.

On Friday Kendal Timeless arranged a wonderful 3 hour John Prine Tribute Show benefiting RFL via our team -- well you know who we are ;)

On Saturday Cancer Piers arranged for a number of wonderful live performers to entertain and help us raise funds to to fund cancer research. The performers were, give or take a crash or two: 1pm Bara Jonson, 2pm NEwbawn Easterwood, 3pm Quinton Whitman, 4pm Shannon Oherlihy, 5pm Nick Northman, 6pm DW Swashbuckler and 7pm Nate Easterwood


During one of the performer crashes a bunch of us got up on the stage with guitars -- including our "Kitty for a Week," Daaneth Kivioq!

Thanks so very much to Kendal, Cancer and their helpers for superb holiday weekend events!
