What a Success!!!

Thank you to everyone who helped out and thank you to everyone who was able to make it out and show support to team Shiny Penny Syndrome.

Thanks Ya'll

I know my husband has already said as much... But I want to let you all know I appreciated everyones help! Thanks Sarah for getting all of the stuff and for your help! I am glad the indian tacos was a success.....

Huge thanks to my Mother-in-law and to my husband who both spent a lot of time getting things ready and also missing his softball games...

The fundraising ended with a bang... Now let's get on with the running!!

Wooo hooooo!!

Thanks for the support....

Thanks to all those that did show up to our Frybread/Indian Taco fundraiser... I was worried that it wasn't going to be a success with all the last minute feedback I was getting minutes before the first bread was served!

I am very thankful for my moms willingness to help out.... she is such a great woman! I was satisfied with the turnout we did receive and the random donations some friends made! If is wasnt for prior engagements some people had... who knows what would have happened... Haha

Thanks to the Shiney Pennys that helped... you may have a future in the frybread business!

Funny to think I actually thought there wasnt enough people to make an impact.... guess the smoke hindered my view!

Words of Wisdom

Well just thought that I would share a few things I learned on my 4.5 mile run tonight... these are mainly for late evening runners and those who love Indian Tacos!
For the evening runners I just have two words " Mosquito Repellent!"
And for those who love Indian Tacos... No matter how good they look or how many times one calls your name DO NOT eat one before a run for two very important reasons:
#1 They do not taste as good coming back up as they did going down... and
#2 Well lets just say it has to do with #2 (enough said)!!
Just thought you ladies would like to hear how my run went... after things settled down or out or something... the last mile and a half wasn't too bad. So just be careful what you eat too close to a run.

What a good fundraiser though! Thanks to all who came to support us and to Ruth for making the AMAZING tacos that I just couldn't resist!

Running Math

For those of you who don't know what running math is, it is the inability to do correct math while running or doing anything related to running. I, Sarah Yoshioka, am FAMOUS for running math and I did it again tonight. We can add another $20 to the total for the fundraiser because I took too much for the food reimbursement. Sorry for the mistake and GREAT job tonight.

A BIG thank you to Ruth, Brad and Kelley for all their hard work. It was fun and lucrative and now ladies, we are in the home stretch!

Thanks again for everything!

Sarah

Indian Tacos and Fry Bread, yum yum!

We are having our last fundraiser before our big race tonight and would like to invite one and all to eat fry bread made by the best fry bread maker in the country, in my opinion. Ruth Spencer has graciously consented to spend the evening making fry bread for us and the shiny pennies will there to build you a delicious Indian taco. We will be at Stillman park from 5:00 to 7:00 this evening so come on down and have dinner.
Indian Tacos are $5 and fry bread is $3.
Thank you for all of your support and we hope to see you there.

Make New Friends, But Keep The Old

I wanted to take a minute to personally welcome Chris Isaacson to our team. With our old friend Fawn stepping down, we look forward to making a new friend in Chris. What a girl to pick up the training at mile 10, there are not a lot of people that would be willing and able to do that. We are grateful to you for keeping us on the road to achieve our goal. Fawn, we love you and hope everything works out for you. Go Shinny Penny Syndrome!
