It's Mail Time at the 3-Day Post Office!!

After a long 20 miles (or more), there's nothing better than getting to camp and finding mail at the 3-Day Post Office!  Letters with encouraging words help remind you after a tiring day why you signed up to walk 60 miles. The last two years, your letters have brought tears to my eyes and have given me so much motivation and encouragement to keep walking.  I'd love to hear from you this year too!!

Post Cards from Mrs. Jones' 3rd Grade Class!  It was so sweet to have my Superstars cheer me on.

Walking 60 miles in 3 days is not easy...your love and support means so much to me.  Thank you to everyone who wrote me letters and sent words of encouragement last 2 year (some even sent a card for each day). 

Here are some suggested ways to support me and my team.  These suggestion are from the 3-Day Website!

• Write a letter expressing your love and support to your walker, which we’ll deliver to her/him on the event. Getting mail on event can provide a big boost to their spirits. Take a few minutes to write a note which will brighten up their Komen 3-Day experience!
  Send letters to:
  Susan G. Komen 3-Day Camp Mail
  ATTN: INSERT NAME OF PARTICIPANT
  P.O. Box 1101  
  Woodstock, GA 30188
  Envelopes only, please. No boxes or large packages. Mail must be postmarked no later than October 8 in order to ensure delivery at the 3-Day Camp Post Office. Please note: This address is not the actual location of camp, but a PO Box for mail delivery only. Any mail that is not received by the 3-Day^® by October 15 or retrieved by the participant by November 4 will be destroyed.
• Organize a group to host your very own private cheering station. (Contact mhowell@event360.com for more information.) You have the potential to turn any tired 3-Day walker into a happy participant by surprising them at a cheering station!
• Send your participant sweet dreams with a personal note and a treat. Click here for details.
• Help raise money. Ask your participant how you can get involved in her/his fundraising plan to help your walker exceed their fundraising goal.

I really appreciate everyone who has made it possible for me to walk the last 3 years!  I have been so blessed to be a part of the 3-Day family and walk.  I am glad that I can do this for my mom and know that my efforts help to promote awareness and save lives!  I am going to close with a quote from a card I received from a sweet lady named Donna during the 2011 Event.  I dream big!  I hope you do too!

 

Dream higher than a mountain, deeper than the sea, wider than the world - for the size of our dreams tells not how big we are but how big our God is.  Holley Gerth

 

Praying, hoping, believing, in a cure!

 

God can do anything, you know - far more than you could ever imagine or guess or request in your wildest dreams!  Ephesians 3:20
