Yeah! $1,000 raised so far!




I am happy to post the first $$ amount that we have raised so far - $1,000 - and I haven't even started hiking yet. Last night, The Trail Store hosted a "send off" event with representatives from the Home of the Innocents (HOTI) speaking to invited guests and family. I enjoyed talking about my upcoming adventure and the HOTI fundraiser we are promoting. Thanks to all of you who have contributed to the Home and thanks to the Trail Store for their support and sponsorship of my hike.

Enjoy the photos of the kick-off gathering hosted by the Trail Store. Gordon Brown, President of the HOTI greeted the guests and described the fund raiser effort we are undertaking. Thanks to all the supporters of my hike.

Keep hiking,
Greybeard
