What a night. April 25th. spent most of the day setting up the tent, carting in supplies, setting up the sucker pull activity. Got a little sunburn. Ran home to change into my team t-shirt, got a call fr om my sister. Made it back in time for the survivor reception. Had some volunteers help with walking. 3 devoted team members stayed all night. Had the closing at about 4:30 am. I was disappointed how many teams had packed up and gone home - several before even midnight! I can't imagine what turnout would be like if this was advertised as a 24-hour event.
Those of us who stayed had a nice night. Not too cool, a bit muggy. Gnats were bad at dusk & early morning. Our little team raised more than $1000, which made me happy.
