An overwhelming success are the only words I could use to describe how well the hot dog and fund raiser for Haiti went this weekend. A remarkable $2686.00 was collected over two four hour periods. Thanks so much to everyone that helped and to the public that contributed. It was especially heartwarming to see the two small children come up with their parents and give us a large jar of coins they had collected. Turns out it had over $180.00 in it. According to their parents, it was all their idea. This more than makes up (well almost) for the guy that spat at Bob Hudson as he passed by in his vehicle saying we were wasting are time collecting money for ..................... (as this is a family blog, I won't use the words he said to describe people that live in Haiti) Anyway, other than that isolated incident - WOW - great job everyone. Oh and thanks again to Western Foods for supporting us as they always do. And Rob Peters of Sooke Moving and Storage for the use of his hot dog cart again. Lots of good community minded folks in this town.
