Hello Everyone!
I wanted to let everyone know of a fun event that is coming up.
It's the Tough Enough to Wear Pink night at the Ogden Rodeo on July 23, 2009.
I got a phone call from the rodeo committee and they are looking for some breast cancer survivors they can honor that evening. They need 10 more survivors.
If you choose to participate you and 1 guest will receive:
-2 free tickets to the rodeo
-2 free tickets to a BBQ dinner prior to the rodeo
-a cute Tough Enough to Wear Pink T-shirt
Ginny Nelson and I did this last year, (along with several other survivors we didn't know) and we had tons of fun. The dinner was yummy and then at the beginning of the rodeo, we walked out into the arena in our fun shirts and were honored as breast cancer survivors. Then we got great seats to watch the rest of the rodeo with our 1 guest. I am planning to attend this year, and I'm buying tickets so my boys can come too!
The event is on Thursday, July 23rd and the dinner starts at 6PM. If you think you might be interested in doing this, please email Hanny Martindale
genehanny@comcast.net
There are only 10 spots open, so Hanny will accept the first 10 emails she gets. She has to have a final count by tomorrow evening, so don't delay!
Send her an email with the following information:
Name
Mailing Address
Telephone Number
Shirt Size
Again, send this information to
genehanny@comcast.net Hanny will mail you your tickets and information for the evening.
I'm excited to see who can come!
And don't worry, if you don't like being in the spotlight, you can still come to the rodeo and support the cause! A portion of the evenings proceeds are donated to a local breast cancer charity. (Not sure which one this year, last year it was McKay Dee Hospital Breast Cancer Center) If you wear pink you get a discount too! For those of you who have never been to a rodeo, this one is AWESOME. I have been to tons of rodeos, and this one was so much fun. After all the bull riding and barrel racing, they usually have some cool motor cross too. It's a super fun evening for the entire family. And the food is very tasty too!
Anyway, send an email to Hanny ASAP if you want to go!
Hope to see you there!
Thanks!
