Half way there - Fund raising going very well

WE ARE HALF WAY THERE!!!

Today’s total is $250,285.49

What can I say? I am still in shock. Thank you to everyone, as I have said many times over, I hope that Dylan will get to return from America in remission and that will be everyone’s reward. You have all contributed to assist Dylan on this quest for life, and for that, everyone should be very proud.

NEWS FLASH:
Dylan and I will be interviewed on the Sunrise program, on channel seven at 7:45am. I know it’s early, but if your up then tune in. I am very nervous as it will be a live broadcast, and I am not sure what Dylan will say (hopefully he will not be too cheeky!)

CAMPAIGN NEWS:
Leanne is seeking more volunteers for the charity fete scheduled for Saturday 5th February 10am -4pm. If you think you may be able to assist please email Leanne: oziris@iprimus.com.au

A charity Auction night has also been scheduled at Shakespeare’s restaurant in Frankston:101 Young St Frankston, on Friday 28th January - 8.00pm. There will be a small door charge (gold coin) and auction with all profits to be donated to Dylan’s campaign. If you would like further information, please email Leanne: oziris@iprimus.com.au

A Trivia Night will also be held at the Rosebud Country Club on Saturday 29th January. Entry will be $10 per person, lots of raffles, door prize, games and fun. Get there at 7.30pm for a start at 8pm. Only 120 places, so get in quick, All proceeds will go to Dylan's fund. For tickets and information please contact Vicki: natpro@westnet.com.au.

We have also had a wonderful offer from “LaManna Bananas” Their business is auctioning a block of land in the Peninsula sands estate, with the proceeds going to Dylan’s campaign.

The signed cricket bats, signed Essendon posters, Melbourne Storm signed jersey and a St.Kilda signed cap are all on the E-Bay site. For further information email Brett: oziris@iprimus.com.au

Dylan is well again today, I have to try and get him to go to bed early tonight, ready for his live interview on morning news! Both Dylan and Cain are not concerned about tomorrow’s interview, they are more excited about a time scheduled for later in the day. The boys will meet their favorite Richmond football players! Cain is extremely passionate about football and has his poster ready for the players to sign.
