Welcome to our team blog!

So, can you believe it? I'm doing it again, only this time I'm not alone. Not only did Michelle join me in creating a team, but Vicky volunteered to join us, as well. We are excited and can't wait to get started with our first fundraising event.

Let me start by introducing you to our awesome team: Rhowena, Michelle, and Vicky. For those of you that don't know, this year I'm (Rhowena) a twelve year survivor and fighter of breast cancer. My immediate support team is none other than my husband, Adam, and daughter, Paige. She is chomping at the bit to get those cupcakes decorated!

Michelle is my awesome friend that finally decided to take the plunge and join the greatest cause on Earth, Susan G. Komen 3-Day. Next to Adam and Paige, she was my biggest supporter when I walked last in the San Diego 3 Day for the Cure 2010. This year she will be supported by her husband, Charles, who was a wonderful supporter and also went to the SD 3 Day '10. Michelle and Charles have both been affected by the devasting grip of breast cancer when Charles' sister was diagnosed a few years back.

Vicky found out that Michelle was walking and jumped on the opportunity to contribute to what? You guessed it, the greatest cause on Earth...the 2012 San Diego SGK 3-Day! Her and Michelle have been friends for years and she joins us with a positive approach that will definitely benefit all of us and the team in the upcoming months. Isaac, her husband, her daughter, Stephanie, and son, David will be rooting for her and all of us.

I would be remiss if I didn't mention the support we have already received when we announced that we were getting a team togther. Katie and Terrilynn were the first ones to donate items for our upcoming fundraiser in the last couple weeks and we just finalized the flyer today! Jonna, Magda, Ekta, Katie, Dalila, Stephanie, and David have already volunteered their time in our fundraising events, too. We are lucky to have them and will definitely be able to use their help. If you are willing to help us at any of our events, we will gladly appreciate it and definitely put you to work. :) Leave a comment below or send us an email via our email link.
