It’s Relay for Life time again! This is that time each year when I ask all of you for donations. (Sorry about that!) In case you don’t know, I lost my father to cancer when I was 19. This is what drives me to raise money and walk each year. The wonderful team work of Cole’s Cheesy Crew and the generosity of all of our fabulous guests has allowed us to raise almost $3500 the last two years. (The rest of the team doesn’t know this but I set our team goal above $2000 this year. Shhhhh!)
This year, we have already had a very successful bake sale at both stores and the Viroqua store has sold 150 paper feet that decorate the front of the cooler, the ceiling and the front of the check-out counter. Frankly, Viroqua has kind of kicked La Crosse’s hind end so far. But I have no doubt that the kids in La Crosse will kick it up a notch. I know that Casey has a campaign planned that involves voting for which bad hair cut people think he should get. He has to get his ugly hair cut before the Relay and walk that night looking like a fool We’re all really excited about that!
I’ll keep you posted on any other plans that we make. We’re hoping for a GREAT Relay this year!
