It's hard to believe that we've been
doing this Camp and Brew thing for 5 years now, and we can only thank
YOU for your support, encouragement, and participation in Camp and Brew.
Without your involvement, we wouldn't be capable of having so much fun
and doing some great things for Brian's Wish and ALS awareness.
By all accounts, our fifth anniversary blowout was a success. We had all
the best ingredients for a good party, souvenir cups, t-shirts, live
internet webcam, a full range of beverages, topped off with 5 kegs of
beer. Smoked, pulled-pork sandwiches from Chez Bubba completed the
culinary experience.
We enjoyed seeing old friends and meeting many new. Best of all,
everyone was so generous to donate to our chosen charity of Brian's
Wish. Every year, we worry that we won't be able to match the previous
year's donation total. This year was no exception, but we had to count
the money multiple times, because we simply couldn't believe it. Thanks
to the donations of all, we raised over double what we did last year for
a total of $5,285! We thank you, Brian's parents, Mary Ann and
Jim, thank you, and we continue to pray that these efforts will assist
in finding a cure for this terrible disease.
