Coldest Night of the Year

At Jericho Road, as some know, we did a fund raiser a little while back called the 'Coldest Night of the Year'. It was a great success and around 120 people came out for the 5km walk in support for awareness of homelessness. Our goal was $20 000 and we past that by a long shot, around  $30 000. Thanks to every one who supported us by walking and donating. Here is a video our friend Tony took. Check it out on this link.

This whole operation  was organized with military precision. As an ex sailor I appreciate that.   It wade fundraising easy and fun.  My team members want to be part of it again next year.

Brian you did a totally amazing job of friendly help and coordination.
