I wanted to say this sooner, but my computer was down for a couple of days... I wanted to say thanks to all that showed up and or donated to the tricycle races... I guess it was just bad planning on my behalf, the races had to be canceled due to the fact that the Camel Toe Cantina was suddenly packed by a rush of very loyal Mexico Soccer fans that came to watch the game... the game went on past the time that was planned for our starting of the races...
But even though we weren't able to hold the races, the event was still a big success because of the generousity of people like azbeachboy (chuck) and his mother Jean, who donated a trunkload of spiral notebooks, pencils, pens and crayons... we now have two full loads of supplies to deliver to the schools....
Also Thanks to fasteddy here on the forum for his generous cash donation... and rockyptjoe, Penasco Pirate (Matt and Dusty) and Inka Roads (Eduardo and his lovely family) for bringing down tricycles for the races... I really had a great time meeting with rockyptjoe and his daughter and enjoyed our talk and hope to do it again soon... Ink it was also a pleasure meeting you and your family and hope to get to talk with you more on another visit... Matt and Dusty it's always good to see you guys and looking forward to going snorkeling with ya's sometime (weather permitting)
and last but not least... Big Thanks to Jim and the Camel Toe Cantina for the offer of the bar to hold the races... I think if we didn't allow the soccer game to play out it may have caused a riot, and those soccer crowds can get unrulely...
thanks again to all involved you are helping give the children something that everyone deserves but not all can afford... and that is a chance at a good education...
