Back again with our Holiday Fundraiser!

It's been a while since we've updated this blog. About 3.5 months ago, everyone from Team Boobylicious that started the 2007 3 Day Walk walked across the finish line. It was an unforgettable experience, as always! We've already got a five member team signed up for 2008, and a few more folks waiting in the wings to join us for their first 3 Day experience!

And now, it's time for our first fundraiser - Holiday Cookies!

Whether it's as a Christmas gift, a holiday party dinner, or just to snack on around the home or office, we've got you covered. AND you'll be supporting a great cause, too.

Choose between chocolate chip cookies, peanut butter blossoms, iced sugar cookies, or a variety of the three. Each dozen costs $6, or you can order 5 dozen for only $25. There's free local delivery around the Twin Cities, or an extra $6 charge if you'd like us to ship them to you.

You can download the flyer here and pass it along to everyone you know. They (or you!) can order online at teamboobylicious.com/cookies, and we'll be in touch to arrange delivery options!

Silent Auction Wrapup

Our silent auction last night was a huge success, thanks to everyone who took part. Thank you to everyone who came to the party, who placed a bid, and who donated! We had over 70 items available, and nearly everything was gone by the end of the night.

...including Wendy's hair! She promised she'd shave her head if she raised $5,000, and she did!

By the time the auction proceeds are all credited, our team will be over the $35,000 mark, and all our walkers will have reached their personal fundraising goals. Thanks to everyone who got us here!
