Wow! Today was beyond incredible!!
Thank you to everyone that came out, showed support and rallied with us to support Rebecca Rogers Volpe Foundation!!
Special thank you to our special guests Dawn Flaherty and Kyle Flaherty for making the 12+ hour drive over two days to be here with us!
Dawn, I have so much love for you and your mission! The JeAp of Joy mission aligns exactly with what we are doing here and I do believe EVERYONE enjoyed y’all being here! Thank you for being here and we look forward to hopefully having you again soon!
Another Special Thank you to The Rican Lab for the delicious food! And to Fat Cat Homemade Ice Cream and The Finer Scoop for the sweet treats to help keep us all cool! And of course to the amazing Burke with The Mason Jar Lager Company for pouring up the brews!
Also, big shoutout to all of our vendors that joined us and shared their awesome gifts and talents with us.
Most importantly THANK YOU VOLUNTEERS!!! Without our incredible volunteers, none of this would have been possible! We are extremely grateful for each and everyone of you!
A lot of folks don’t realize this but when we say we are a nonprofit, we are truly that! We do not get paid anything at all for our time and efforts. For us, that’s not what this is about! This is about giving back to the community we love so much and raising awareness for others in need in our community!!
And with that, I have to give the most important THANK YOU, to Shaun Johnson and Kellie Babb! MY TEAM!! I couldn’t follow this passion and make it what it is today without these two!! You’re drive, spirit, passion and yes the humor behind it all is what keeps me going! You two are part of my family and I love yall!!
If you have pictures from the event today, please share them!!!
Event totals are coming soon, and I can already tell you, I know this was an incredible fundraising event!!
