Pam, I was hoping I could distribute the request at work but HR won't allow it, so that was going to be my main source of pledge support. Not sure about the US funds. The paddle is a small, local event. Beginners are welcome even. Gordin Warner leaves tomorrow for his epic fund raiser to the Isle of Mann. The Paddle For A Cure folks parted ways with Gordin, amicably, as his trip was a little more involved... Our route is simply down Saanich Inlet from Brentwood Bay - nothing too rigorous or remotely involved. I guess I'm supposed to email support request to my Outlook Express folder contacts. I'd give more myself but have a new financal controler (my spouse). We are on a tight budget now. I think Craig's wife might want to do the same thing with Craig. lol - as Craig would say. Still, any support is appreciated, internationally or otherwise. I'll update later. BTW, cancer research and medical advances here in western Canada are at an international level of research and care.

How are your fundraising efforts going for the Canadian Cancer Society? I checked your link (referenced below) and it looks as if you are not well supported. Does it make a difference if the dollars pledged are from the US? Do you just convert to Canadian dollars? And please, tell us once again what the kayak route is and what you are doing! http://www.kintera.org/faf/r.asp?t=4&i=222680&u=222680-226381353&e=179522 7715 Thanks!
