This past weekend I was down by the water tower on Zorn Ave for the Louisville Pure Tap Water, 5k! This is the second year CQ has put together a fundraising team for this race and the ones to follow (10k and mini marathon) and it was a lot of fun!
We got to have a mini-reunion right there at the start line, and get some exercise along the way too! We had a really good turn out from everyone; campers, families, companions and COC staff!
The weather was good, and it was a good day : )

Yard Sale
Saturday morning I met up at Nurse Nancy's house, and helped out with a yard sale for Camp Quality! This is the second year we have had this yard sale, and both years has defiantly been a success! We had lots of help from campers, families and COC and it was a lot of fun!
All items were donated, and the traffic for this neighborhood yard sale was like Derby Day in the yard sale world.
I'm glad I got to go and help out and I even found an item for myself, which I am VERY excited about !
I LOVE 90's rap... : )

September is...
Most readers who come across this blog may already know this, but a lot of people do not know, and that is that September is childhood Cancer awareness month.
September is an important time for Camp Quality because we have another reason to try and spread the word not only about Camp Quality, but about the disease that is responsible for camp as well.
Some of the facts scare me to no ends, but that's even more of a reason to be familiar with what camp quality is apart of...
Being apart of camp quality, whatever the reason may be; we all have something in common and that is that our life in some way or another, big or small has been affected by childhood cancer. September can be used as a reminder as to why we fund raise and why we do what we do, and its for the kids.
This month, take a minute and go to our website, or Facebook page and see what is going on for camp! We have a couple fundraisers this month that will go to camp 2014! Even next week we have one down on 4th street at Gordon's Biersch starting at 6pm
I have been apart of camp for a little over 5 years now, and no matter who many hours I volunteer or the fundraising I help with I always feel like I can do more for these kids.. The kids who remind me every day to do as much as I can, because thats just how it goes.. We help in hopes that one day there will be no more cancer, and kids can truly just be kids again without having the word cancer in the back of their minds.
This month, is for the golden kids who are fighting and that I think is why we have a golden ribbon of awareness!
happy September everyone : )
