Funds, Funds, Did I Mention Funds???

First of all read the other blogs before this one so your not lost. Hi guys I'm just bringing you up to speed on ALL of our fundraisers for last weekend of December 6th and 7th, wowie... Ok first we were at the Santa Breakfast selling American Flag Magnets, Snowflake Ornaments, Doughnuts, and Memo Clips from 9-11 in the morning. Next Hope and I went to the Eagle Country Christmas event from 12-7 at night, selling everything else except Snowflakes (they were already going way too fast, in a good way). Don't need to explain all the details, it was hard and complicted and stressful but still fun. Then on Sunday we went to Mrs. Wittman's house to help set up her Christmas Tree and help decorate, getting into the Christmas spirit! After from 2-4 we had a shoe party at the Perfect Pair botique, a.k.a. the shoes-to-die-for store. Thank you all for willing to come out! Sort of small party, but oh well. Thank you supporters for helping this weekend!!! (] :

Lots And Lots Of Leaders

On Tuesday November 2nd me and my friend Hope went to the Political Convention in the Grove. We wanted to go there and get our name out about what we were doing so that great Idahoan Leaders would know and maybe would like to help. I was writing down notes and getting a lot of contacts that were willing to donate. It was a lot of fun, really fancy (thank goodness we were dressed up!), and exciting! Thank you polititians once again for your support!

The Outcome of the Donuts

Realitives in Idaho, if you read my blog from Thursday, November 27th you would've heard about my friend Hope and I selling Krispy Kreme donuts at the BSU game Friday. It went very well, the donuts were delicious as usual, and besides selling 2 boxes to our dads, we sucessfully sold 48 boxes to other bronco fans (since we had 50 boxes)! Thank you all who bought donuts from us! It was really fun!

A JrNYLC Fundraiser Event

Hey guys, listen up! Friends and family in Idaho, My friend Hope and I are setting up a booth at the Cecil D. Andrus Elementary Santa Breakfast Saturday, December 6th for our JrNYLC trip. We will be selling American Flag magnets that we will personally make and then sell for $1! Please come buy one, they're pretty awesome and all of the money will be donating toward the $3,000 dollar tuition fund and the expensive plane ticket and anonymous items for the trip! Plus, who doesn't want to be reminded every morning of the great country they live in while they go get eggs out of their refrigirator? I know I do! So come support us, don't miss out!

A Huge Honor It's Awesome!

I have been invited to fly over to Washington, D.C., I hope you all know where that is (LoL), to attend the JrNYLC (Junior National Young Leaders Conference)! It's a conference for 6th and 7th graders across the country designed to educate, motivate, and inspire by giving them the confidence and leadership skills that will take them through their high school years and beyond. My best friend Hope also got invited as well. This was a HUGE shock to me because I never knew that I did something so important to be invited to this phenominal program. My school nurse at my former elementary school, Karma Cusack, recomended me to this conference so thank you so much Mrs. Cusack!!! I personally think this is a dream that has come true. Studying America's History, a subject which I love and meeting new friends across the country, I couldn't ask for more! There is one problem though: I need $3,ooo dollars by March 22nd. This is including my $1,959 dollar tuition, my plane ticket, and other annonymus items that are just plain expensive! Family, this year for Christmas please send me money instead of presents. I need all the help I can get, so please support me in going through this hard process to get to that conference!
