2nd Annual SKIDS Halloween Bash - A Great Success!

Hello All! What a great turn out on Friday! Thank you to everyone who came!! And thank you to everyone who helped put it on!! We could not have done it without all of you!

We estimate there were about 450 people there— and we were able to raise just over $900 which is wonderful! $917 to be exact!

That money will all go towards the supplies that are still needed for the Christmas Care Packages for the Havasupai Indian Reservation. Thank you all so very much for your generosity and your participation!

There are a lot of photos so, please be patient as it may take us a couple days to get them all posted. Thank you Kelvin for your time and effort on the photos!!

Thanks to everyone who came and to everyone who helped! And a special thanks to Brett for letting us use his house!!

Thank you!
Jen and Troy (and everyone at the SKIDS Foundation!)

1st Annual SKIDS Halloween Bash.... October 2006

Thank you to everyone who helped with the First Annual SKIDS Halloween Bash!! And more importantly, a special thanks to everyone who attended the event of the season!!! Because frankly... no matter how much planning and prep work I do, it makes zero difference if the party doesn't get a good turn out! So thank you for coming and spending the evening celebrating with us!

The final count for donations was $2,145...

As you all know, we have put that money towards supplies for the Road Home Shelter. I talked to the shelter the day after the party and discussed with them which items they really needed most. She was hesitant to ask for anything, as if the phone call was too good to be true and she didn't want to jinx it. Once I gave a little encouragement by listing off the items I was thinking of buying, she finally started to open up a little more. It turns out that they had almost no pillow cases, zero dish towels, very few sheets, etc. They are also always short on blankets, and especially on socks. So... we got all those things and a few other items too! Below you will find a list of the all the items that were acquired (we even had a few items donated at the party so I have added those item in too)!

46 Coats 10 Hats 27 Gloves 158 Pairs of Socks 41 Blankets 20 Pillows	98 Pillowcases 16 Sheets Sets 34 Bath Towels 32 Hand Towels 72 Wash Cloths 96 Dish Towels
These items will make a HUGE difference for this shelter and many lives will be touched because of the generosity of all of you! And don't forget to check out all the photos from the party below! I thank you sincerely for your generosity and wonderful charitable spirits!
