Whatever you can give will help – it all adds up! I greatly appreciate your support and will keep you posted on my progress.

What’s the wrinkle you ask?  Well, as you may know my eyesight isn’t the best.  Hitting a golf ball USUALLY isn’t a problem.  Seeing it, after hitting IS a problem.  That’s why I don’t golf nearly as much as I used to.  When I do golf, it’s with “friends” or family.  Typically, one of my friends (Eric Gowans, a.k.a. big E) doubles as my seeing-eye-dog for this event.  This will be my first year without him.  He will be missed, but is excused as he vacations with his family in Emerald Isle, NC.  

Am I telling you about this wrinkle so you’ll keep reading?  Partially.  Is it so that you’ll feel sorry for me?  Not at all.  Maybe it’s for a phantom donation of golf balls?  No, but just in case I like Titleist Pro-V’s.  🙂  You see, Eric and I always golf together, laugh together and raise money together.  This year it’s just me.  These kids need your help.  I’m asking that all of you make your donation … and then double-down.  You’ll make some kids day, week, month or even a year.  

We like to have fun in what we do.  But at the end of the day, it’s all about the kids.  Thank you for your help.  God’s peace and I love you!    

Sincerely,

BW (a previously unused nickname) and Big E

By the way, “slink dog” was his nickname in high school.  I think he had something to do with his stature and how he played baseball.  Aside from that explanation, you’ll have to ask him how he got the nickname.  

Thank you to everyone for supporting me in this and my daily walk through life.
