Ok guys, I know there are a few of you in the Charleston area who lurk around here without commenting...that's okay! I love you all. But I just opened a poll question on the right side of the blog and I want your input!
I am considering putting together an "All You Can Eat" Dessert & Coffee Night at my apartment building downtown to help raise money for my Team in Training campaign. In order to gauge interest for this event, I opened up a poll to see what you all think.
It's quick, and it's easy. Best of all its anonymous so all you lurkers can vote without having to actually comment! :) So please help me out here!
If I feel like this event will be a success, I might ask you guys to help me with other details for the night. But I think it would be so fun and could be pretty successful for my campaign. I would probably hold it on a Thursday evening, after work hours. I would collect a ton of goodies from my own kitchen, co-workers and friends who would willingly donate some sugary treats for this cause. Then I would charge a "cover fee" per plate with a minimum donation of some amount.
But hey, if you want to donate $10 or so now, I wouldn't be mad! If everyone who visited this blog gave $10 today I would have...well, not a whole lot, but more than I have now! ;)
Also you guys should check out my fundraising page, I added a bit about the little boy who I will be running for! How can you say no to that grin?

I'm hoping to meet up with a new Twitter/blog/Wild West Relay team member Shannon tonight after work to run the bridge, which is about 5-6 miles round trip from my work. I haven't ran it in a while, plus I'm sure it will be hot and muggy so I hope Shannon isn't mad when I'm slowing her down :)
Then I'm meeting up with my pal Sandy for some Bride Wars and dinner! Love me some girls night. See y'all later!
Great idea! Wish I lived in Charleston!
ReplyDeleteThis is a really good idea!
ReplyDeleteI wish I lived nearby, this sounds like a great idea :) I love this kind of stuff! I really hope it is successful for you!
ReplyDeleteCute idea! If I lived there I would totally help ya out. Have fun on your run!
ReplyDeleteI saw Bride Wars on a plane last week. Total shlock, but of so entertaining :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a GREAT idea! Wish I lived there:( Love Bride Wars! Have a good run tonight!
ReplyDeleteIf I was in Charleston I would be there!
ReplyDeleteHA! As much as I love dessert, I'd fly to NC to eat as much as I can. You'd lose your shirt with me there (money-wise, I'm talkin' about). LOL
ReplyDeleteMan, I wish someone on my coast would do this. ;)
Oh wait. I voted before I saw "if you live in Chas." OOPS
ReplyDeleteAnyhoosits, I like pie. In your face!
I would definitely come/donate food if I lived nearby! Sounds like a yummy way to raise money.
ReplyDeleteHave fun at girls' night!
I think this is a fantastic idea! I wish I lived close! Good luck with it.
ReplyDeleteHi. I saw your blog about running the bridge tonight. What bridge? Can you run the Cooper River Bridge when its not bridge run weekend?
ReplyDeleteOh I wish I lived in Charleston! It is a fantastic idea. In terms of my "care package" anything healthy and/or Charleston would be great for me. I have a few ideas for you but is there anything you really want? I don't have a Whole Foods close by. :(
ReplyDeleteI don't see the poll, but if I'm not working that evening I will definitely be there!
