Yesterday I posted about an "East Coast Weekend getaway". Well that was really a cover for something else. I was hoping to get some PM responses but got zero. I did this to try to surprise this SBG.
So now today I'm going to put this out on the Forum with all the facts and our fellow SBG will know about it but it doesn't really matter because it is such an important event.
First a disclaimer..... only three other people knew about this.... Lance, Tyler, and Warhawk.
We have a member named Tony (NAVRN) that has a daughter with some disabilities. You can read all about his daughter here:
http://www.givelilyhope.com/helpsendlilytocamp.htmI've never met Tony and PMed with him only once a few weeks ago.
If you look at his daughter's page you will see that there is a fundraiser for her on June 1st..... the weekend of the SBG East Coast Getaway.
That getaway is to Chesapeake Virgina to attend Lily's fundraiser. I thought it would be great to have a handful of SBGs get together in Chesapeake for the weekend and attend Lily's fundraiser on Sunday.
I have emailed Tony and his wife this AM and asked them how to go about purchasing tickets. Anyone that would like to go can contact them thru the info on Lily's page or contact me and I'll let you know how to go about purchasing tickets once i hear back from Tony.
I have PMed with Lance and he and I are going to meet up down there and we and our wives are going to the fund raiser.
I'm asking two things here:
1) If you are on the east coast in the general area of Chesapeake Virginia, or anywhere else for that matter, why not see if you can make arrangements to get to Chesapeake that first weekend in June and join me, Lance, and our wives at the fundraiser for Lily. We can meet on Saturday and have a little pre-fundraiser get together.
2) if you cannot join us.... PLEASE, PLEASE send a donation for Lily. The information on where to send donations is on Lily's page. As usual with these types of things....... no amount is too small.
SBG is a community about friendship and support. If you've ever received even one bit of help from a brother on SBG please consider helping Tony and his family. Think how great it would be to have a handful of SBG Brothers walk together into that event for that little girl.
So there it is...... It really is an east Coast Getaway............. but for an incredible cause.
Thanks Guys......
