#FundraisingFriday: Jonathon and Kenny’s Story
It was a tough challenge, but we made it; it would have been so much harder without Kenny riding alongside me to keep me going. We want to thank everyone who donated and helped and Floyd for being our marshal and keeping us safe. We raised a fantastic amount and still have a few donations to collect.
