Spring Update
Hey guys!
The past couple of weeks have been pretty stellar. On April 11th and 12th, we held our Fifth Annual Relay For Life at Mount Aloysius. Laura and I were the co-chairs of the event for the second year in a row. Relay is a 24-hour event filled with games, prizes, music, entertainment, food and much more. Throughout the year, teams have been fundraising like crazy. All of the money raised goes to the helping cancer victims, survivors and family members through their fight.
This year, we had many different activities planned. We played musical chairs, had Rock Band and Wii Bowling hooked up, had an ice-cream eating contest, had awesome performances by the Step Team, comedian Randy Riggle and a couple of DJs. The Money Tree Game Show also took place, but I didn't win any money. I couldn't hit the baseball far enough to get past the first round...lol
I also got pied several times by my friends and family. It was so disgusting. I could smell whipped cream for the entire week...The event raised over $21,000. I am so glad that everything turned out so well.
I am still working on getting an assistantship so I can pay for my graduate studies. I have just finished my second interview with St. Vincent College and have been invited to the campus for another one. I am so excited.
Well, I am going to head to bed, so I will talk to you later
John
