Light The Night Walk



I did the Light The Night Walk on Friday, September 5th, downtown Anchorage.




The morning and afternoon were pretty rainy, but thankfully it cleared up just prior to the walk. I would say around 150 or so people showed up to walk the 5 miles total.


I personally raised $2,345 dollars for the foundation - my goal was 1,000! I want to thank each & every person & company that donated to my walk! I also want to thank Chelsi & Richard who walked with me.


This was my first time doing the walk, and I had so much fun that I will definately do it again! However, I will not sign up one month prior to it - I felt rushed to get everything done! And hopefully, it'll be warmer & not so wet.


I highly encourage anyone interested to check out their site & join on one of their walks! Go to http://www.lightthenight.org/ for more information.

Miss Fur Rondy Pageant

I'm feeling very honoured to be a part of a committee to revise the Miss Fur Rondy pageant! It hasn't been done in 15 years - last year they brought it back (but choose simply thru interview), but this year will be a full out pageant. Primarily all the people selected to be on the pageant committee are all former title holders. As a volunteer escort last year, it was fulfilling to be a part of the resurection of the title. But to be able to assist in the rebuilding of the pageant is utterly fabulous! We are hoping to have some wonderful contestants from all over Alaska and all walks of life! If anyone is interested, they can get an application at www.furrondy.net
