We need your help! Blake will be traveling to Arizona this week to participate in a race to raise money for Children's A-T Research at the Grand Canyon. They will be doing what is called a Rim 2 Rim where they hike the Grand Canyon from the North Rim to the South Rim in one day. A-T (ataxia telangectasia) is a rare genetic disorder that manifests itself early in life, confines you to a wheelchair before you are 10 years old, and usually takes your life before you turn 20. Our dear friends P.D. and Jessica Cowand have a son, Liam, who is afflicted with A-T. ( P.D. was one of Blake's roommates at Ricks College). He and Blake decided to take a dream of Blake's and turn it into a race/fundraiser for A-T Research. We are asking all of our friends and family to help us raise money to fund more research to help combat A-T. Anything you can and will donate will be appreciated! Please go to Blake's website at http://www.communityatcp.org/TeamLiam and give what you can. We know in the current economy, money is tight with everyone, but every little bit helps! Check back soon for pictures from the race!
