Livestrong Fundraiser and recent news

So several things have happened recently, all very cool.  Infinit Nutrition came on board to support us as our nutrition sponsor and 6 bags of nutrition 1 bag of Mud, a coffee infused with protein mixes arrived
.  I called a light manufacturer to get some info on new advances in lights, when I was contacted by a gentleman who was assisting them while they were short handed.  This turned into a great conversation and next thing you know we have his product AsMasters
protecting our bottoms for the ride.  Next I contacted Livestrong and Amy Fletcher at the Grassroots Fundraising leg of the foundation, she was so helpful throughout the whole process and in the end came through with 4 Jerseys for is to wear 
All in all what great progress.

On July 2nd I had a fundraiser at the Humboldt Bay Tourism Center, where we decided all profits that night would go to this cause.  Local merchants, Adventures Edge, Fire & Light, Aqua Rodeo Oyster Farm, Humboldt Adventurewear, Cypress Grove, the Jogg and Shoppe, Allout SUP Paddleboarding and The Local Beer Bar donated awesome gifts for a silent auction.  We were able between the two to get nearly $700 dollars which will be collected and donated soon.  Friends spent good money at the bar, auction and http://laf.livestrong.org/site/TR/Grassroots/Grassroots?px=6243739&pg=personal&fr_id=1530
