St. Jude Radiothon

I know, I know...don't blog about work, right Bill?

But we're still on quite a high around here after raising more than 22% more money than we raised last year at the St. Jude Radiothon. We had a little hiccup last year, but, how should I say this, the 'hiccup' is gone, back to the Pacific Time Zone.

So this year was a great effort from all of our volunteers, the St. Jude staff, and the staff of the radio station. Most of all, it was a great effort from the people of Central Illinois who made the huge dollar amount happen. We had two great days of phone calls, we all had a great time at Bergner's (at the Shoppes), and I was VERY happy to see Sheriff McCoy doing so well and in such great spirits. And Dan Dermody got a much deserved award to cap off the event.

If you volunteered, thank you. The St. Jude staff? Thank you, you guys were great. Diane? Thank you, honey, for all of the time you put in to help the cause.

If you donated, if you became a "partner-in-hope", thank you most of all!
