Hey remaining die-hard listeners, it's Oblivion with a short edition of EbloTheWeblog.com. Last summer, as you may remember, I raised over $1600 for the Chicagoland Ride for Kids charity motorcycle ride benefiting the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation. The Chicago event set a new record and raised over $400,000 to fund research to treat and cure bother cancerous and non-cancerous brain tumors in children. Last year, due to my fund raising efforts, I got to meet some of the children who have benefited from this research and I have to tell you they really motivated me to ride again this year.
My goal for this year has been to match my funds raised last year, but unfortunately I'm falling short and the ride is THIS Sunday, July 20th. If you'd like to donate, any amount would be appreciated not only by me, but more importantly by the children and families of children with brain tumors. You can donate at http://www.firstgiving.com/markmatula .
If you happen to get this message AFTER July 20th, you can still donate - the money will still go to a great cause and any amount will be credited towards my fund raising efforts for next year's ride. You can bet I'll be riding again.
Thank you for supporting me and this great charity and thank you for staying subscribed. I hope to have a real show out shortly discussing my recent adventures. Have a wonderful day.
