Online Fundraiser (Pampered Chef)

We are doing an Online Pampered Chef Fund raiser that starts immediately. It will close on May 30th. Go to this link and enter my name as the host (Rob Ruddle). Pass this link and my name along to all of your friends and make sure they know it benefits the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life. We will be hosting a live party in June, but the pink breast cancer products are only available until the end of May.

We made about 100 dollars with our last Pampered Chef fund raiser. I know this is a short notice, but I am confident that we can double that total this time around.

Pass it on.

Thanks,
Rob Ruddle, Team Captain

Team News (keep yourself in the loop)

As team captain, I am encouraging everyone to check the website regularly. I realize that over the winter, there wasn't a lot of information posted but I did update it with any important information that came my way. I have been trying to keep you all updated with what happens at our committee meetings and team meetings. If you are familiar with blogging and RSS you can subscribe to this blog or many email clients now allow you to subscribe to RSS feeds. I am going to be sending an email out periodically and when I update important information on Jasonsjourney.org. If you would like to be included in the people that get these emails, please email me at rob@mrruddle.com. Just put "subscribe: jasonsjourney" in the subject line.

Thank you for being a part of Jason's Journey,

Rob Ruddle

This year's relay theme is

This year's relay theme is nursery rhythms. We thinking about themes for our tent site. Please send ideas to Rob ASAP (rob@mrruddle.com). We usually try to tie our theme together with fighting cancer. For example, last year we chose dinosaurs for our theme and we made our slogan "fighting to make cancer extinct". A couple years ago, we chose Alladin and we made our slogan "a whole new world: cancer free". I'm sure you get the point. All ideas are welcome. We will be making the final decision as a team.

Car washes have been scheduled

Car washes have been scheduled for May 31, June 21, and July 19 at Advance Auto in Uniontown. The event will be from 11am - 5pm each day. We are planning to sell food as well. If you are able to help, please contact Rob or Barb as soon as possible. Please direct any questions to rob@mrruddle.com.
