Hi everyone,

After much thought and consideration Jen, a friend and myself will once again participate in the Make-A-Wish-Maine 23.4 mile Trailbraze Challenge in the Carrabassett Valley during the month of September My personal goal is $2,500. It was heart warming and eye opening to see the difference it made in being part of raising over $200,000 to grant wishes for children in Maine with life altering illnesses. The strength these families possess and the smiles of the parents and children was worth every training step, blister, and pulled muscle.

Raising money is always a challenge as there are so many worthwhile causes and all of us have our own personal finances to manage.

Any donation would be appreciated and as promised last year I will complete the work necessary to make this a successful event.

Be well!

Carl
