Relay for Life Part II

As some of you know by now, either through emails or by reading my previous posting I am participating in the Relay for Life here in Monterey.  I am captaining a team called West Coast Family Ties, a play off of the team I was involved with the past two years, Angie's Family Ties.  What you might not know is that you do NOT have to be local to join my team and can join online and do your own fundraising from wherever you are!!!  Click here to join West Coast Family Ties!

And sign up! So to all my Boston, Maine, NH, Florida, NorCal, SoCal, bloggers, FB, twitter, (wherever you may be) friends you can still be part of this amazing team!  Then you can start doing your own fundraising and that will help me raise even more money for my team and overall for the American Cancer Society.  If this is something you'd be interested in doing please do not hesitate to sign up.  If you feel better just making a donation that is great too, any small amount helps and if even just 20 of you make a $5 donation I make my minimum amount of $100.  My personal goal is $250 though so I'd like to hit that mark and make a good example for my teammates (yes I have a few teammates now but I need more!).

Another thing you might not know is that I am also on the Planning Committee.  I was asked to head up the Sponsorship portion of the Planning Committee.  This has seemed to be quite a challenge but I'm trying really hard.  I've never had to do anything quite like this before so it is an unbelievable learning experience.  And just like the online teammates if you know of or have any businesses that would be interested in sponsoring our event please let me know.  Again, they do not need to be in the area but will be recognized as a Relay for Life sponsor for Monterey Peninsula.  Please email me for details if you are interested (rflcpayne@gmail.com or cpayne422@gmail.com).

I know my teammates, family, and friends appreciate your support.  And I am personally grateful for everyone's support and help that I have been given while I try to run this ship!  Don't stop donating to West Coast Family Ties and spread the word!!!  This disease has touched us all so let's work together towards a solution!!!

Love you all!
