Paralympic Campaign Budget |
|
|
|
|
Nine months of training, practice and preparation to get to the Paralympics in Beijing in September. What are we doing between now and then? Sailing, competing and/or practicing at least on week, once a month! Big deal, right? except that wherever we go, we need two or more able bodied people with us. Nick's ALS has progressed to where he needs help. We need experienced help to rig the boat and get off the dock. We need a coach to help us continually improve our game. We need a second boat. Here's what we need: | | | | Budget |
