Last month we held a fund raising event for the H.U. Lee foundation at our karate school. It was a HUGE success! We raised over $2,000 that will go towards scholarships for highschool seniors. We wouldn't have been able to pull this off without the help of our amazing parents at the school. I was 18months pregnant (haha) and had absolutely no energy, was miserable, huge, uncomfortable, and pretty much helped in this 0%. Tara organized this huge thing, with the help of our other parents at the school. I was really impressed with what Bobby did as well. Bobby isn't a 'details' person. But I have to say he did a really good job in helping put this together. We had tonz of raffle prizes, games, a bounce house, lots of food and snacks. Oh yea, and more boards than I could count that were donated by Lowes. We broke boards twice per hour for 4 hours. It was a long day, but it was so worth it. I'm so proud of our school!
