Golf Event & Party Success!

SUCCESS - in two ways:

1.  Financial:  All the numbers aren’t in yet but so far we have netted over $5,000 and probably a lot more. Donations are still dribbling in and we have some grants, etc., to collect.  WOW!

2.  FUN FUN FUN:  Everyone that attended have not stopped talking about what fun they had. 

Here is the picture Linda Olds took and will probably put in the paper.

The Lord works in mysterious ways!

Thank you.

1st Annual Grace Fund Golf Outing (along with the "Party of the Century II")

“The Grace Fund boys” (i.e. Chuck & Mike) are back in full gear now that winter is over. They have had many success stories of neighbors being helped over the long winter – food for people suffering a house fire; help for an victim of spousal abuse; many gas vouchers to help people get to job interviews, appointments, etc. etc. It has been very fulfilling!  

1^st ANNUAL GRACE FUND GOLF OUTING / "PARTY OF THE CENTURY II"

With an overwhelming response to last year's "Party Of the Century" (held in celebration of Chuck and Mike's return from their bike trek to Alaska), big plans are being made for the "Party of the Century II", which will be combined with the 1^st Annual Grace Fund Golf Outing at the Luck Golf Course on July 2.  

Be sure to check your email for news. The flyer about the POCII will be posted on the blog as well.

Party of the Century

Several weeks have passed since the boys returned home, which was cause for celebration! The "Party of the Century" was held this past Saturday and was a very fun time. Many came out to Wilkins Bar & Resort to show their support, which The Grace Fund is very grateful for. I believe there was about 200 people there for the event. We laughed and danced the night away thanks to The White Sidewalls who came to play for everyone - . What a great band! www.whitesidewalls.com. 

The money raised for The Grace Fund was an impressive $6300. WOW! Nice work Chuck & Mike. A huge THANK YOU to everyone who is supporting the cause. Here's what was raised:

$300 on paddles

$2010 on live auction

$1886 on silent auction

$305 on t-shirts (counts Mike’s 10)

AND $1846.00 in donations

At the party we also took Chuck and Mike's new measurements to see how much they lost on the trip. Results:

Chuck
Waist start: 43
Waist end: 42
Arm start: 15
Arm end:15

Mike 
Waist start: 43
Waist end: 39
Arm start: 14
Arm end:13

Here are a few pics from the party, with more to come. If you have any you'd like to share, please e-mail them to me at paula.elert@gmail.com and I will post them on the blog.
