Canada Here I Come!!

Back in September, Layton had his interview and got the phone call he was dreaming of telling him that he has been accepted into the People to People Program to travel to Western Canada for two weeks in June 2011. Now, the race is on to raise $4,000.00 to fund this chance of a lifetime. We've begun some fundraising....Layton has spoke at Rotary Club in Johnsonburg which made a wonderful donation to his trip to get him started. I have ventured out into the craft fair circus to try and sell some of my scrapbooking items and did very well this past week, but we still have a long way to go. I decided to create this little blog for family and friends to keep track of Layton's journey and also to share with everyone what we will be doing to raise money for him!

here's Layton at the Holiday Fest in Johnsonburg this past weekend!
Some upcoming fundraising:

*Saturday, December 4th at the Hoss's in Dubois all day long we will be having a "Community Day". Just show up present the card with Layton's information on it and 20% of your check will be donated back to him! If you are in the area and can help out please let me know so I can get you a card to present with your check!

*We will also be selling tickets for a 300 Club. Tickets cost are $5 each and we will have weekly cash drawings through the month of January. Tickets will be sold until December 31st, 2010.
