My Interests

As of 06/11/08 ~~ We are currently are 69.5% to our goal of raising $6,000 needed for Tanner. THANK YOU! We are TRULY blessed.

I'd like to meet:

This site was orginally set up to raise funds for a POSSIBLE benefit concert for Northern Indiana Service Dogs.After much consideration, & speaking with the local Kiwanis Club. I've come to the tough conclusion that the concert just isn't possible at this time. Maybe at a later date, just not right now.The good news is that the Kiwanis Club HAS agreed to sponsor (in part) Colt's successor, whom will be named Tanner. Donations are still needed for Tanner.I appreciate everyone's help & prayers.~Shiloh
