hey everyone!
just poppin on here for a quick update of things happening. First of all thanks to all the support for my cadet corps. we are working hard in replacing all the equipment and such that was destroyed or stolen. Our main concern right now is trying to raise funds to buy a bit of land and build our own building with indoor parade square for our kids to practice on. I figure we will need about 500,000.00 to 800,000.00 to get everything we need. go figure hehe
i am now bald once again. last monday i participated in a wonderful event. one of our volunteer fire fighters had lukiemia *sorry for the spelling* and we decided to shave our head for a chairity fundraiser. well 17 of us had our heads shaved **male and female and a couple of kids** and we raised about 12,000.00 for her! way to go!!! and to top things off even better, 5 of the guys waxed thier chests!!!! i did not due to the fact i have no hair on my chest to begin with, thank god! so that saved me from that pain hehehe.
this weekend will be busy, the cadets are shaving thier heads ((about 8 of our kids are going to do this)) for a terry fox challenge. then on saturday our local fire department and others across alberta are going to do Heros in the sky. insupport for the fire fighters calender and such. our cadets are doing security for the dance in the parking lot of one of our stores. ill try to remember to take my camera and ill post some pics!
anyway i promise i will have a better blog here soon.
take care everyone!
