You need to add in the Bunny hunt money ($4350) and don't forget the T-Shirt sales. I also sent you an e-mail Doug.

Unfortunatley I could not contribute as much as I feel I would have liked to but I'm happy with my donations. I'm fairly new around here and am amazed at the generosity of these folks. I wonder if anyone has connections to the media to get the word out about the great people here.

Thank you to Terry and Doug and anyone else directly involved in the hours of man power required to make it happen. It's an amazing thing you guys do for those kids. Keep it up. Skippy

I saw this quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson and immediately thought of Trad Gang's St. Jude involvement.

"To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children...to leave the world a better place...to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded."

Thanks to all who contributed in any manner to this worthy and humbling cause.

I has a blast....too much fun.  I hate to think we gotta wait a year to do it again.

I like the 4 day format....it really worked, and drug out the suspense...and really made for some entertainment to say the least.

You guys are just too much.

So great that so many here get behind this very worthy cause. While we only get to do this once a year, for me the feel good sure last's longer.

This group is certainly the salt of the earth  :notworthy:    :clapper:    :clapper:

The auction was an absolute riot and I loved every minute of it!  Like Terry, my only complaint is that we have to wait until next year before we get to do it again!
