We Made It!

Hi Everyone,

We made it!  We have raised over $10,000 for the 2011 inaugural Pink Ribbon Parade!  Our wine tasting event at Nos Caves Vin brought in much more than we had hoped.  As you can imagine, we are thrilled! 

I want to acknowledge individuals and businesses that contributed to our fabulous silent auction:
Central Market
Nicole Choi
Commercial Cleaning Solutions
Loubel Cruz-Galik
Emily Eager Interiors
Kermit Eisenhut
Kevin & Katy Holt
Lora Meier
Darrell & Kathleen Pennington
Rob & Tara Tomicic
Melanie Smith
We cannot thank you enough for your support to Waltz Warriors in our mission to support breast health organizations. 

I also want to give a HUGE thank you to the following individuals who helped with our wine tasting event:
Fielding Cocke who introduced us to Brent Sloan with Nos Caves Vin
Fredna Manney who provided us a delicious food menu
Golden friends Tara and Kathleen for helping with yet another fundraiser
Mark Garza with Delectatio Wines
The Pink Ladies of Pearland

And finally, to the Waltz, Longoria and Moore families.  For seeing the vision of Waltz Warriors with me through this past year.  You held your to tongue and always supported me with only positive answers!  The cooking, the lemonade stands, the mailings, the art events, the emails, the sewing, the raffle tickets, the marketing and on and on.

I love you Brett and I am so proud of how we have guided our children through the world of cancer.

Tomorrow, September 13 at 9:30, the Breast Health Collaborative of Texas will host a press conference at Houston City Hall to kick off the Pink Ribbon Parade.  The seven foot tall ribbons will be gathered around the reflection pool in Hermann Square. 

Waltz Warriors and Butterfly Kisses will be presenting checks to Pink Ribbons Project, the beneficiary of the funds we raised.  We will also be acknowledging our artists, Betsy Miller with Colors of the Heart studio in Friendswood and Kermit Eisenhut of Houston.  Stay tuned!   

For I know that plans I have for you says the Lord.  Plans for good and not disaster, to give you a future and a hope.  Jeremiah 29:11
