How much sleep did you get this weekend? I spent the weekend raising money for 2 different charities. The first charity was Juvenile Diabetes, my Sorority held an indoor soccer tournament which was a lot of fun. I took about 200 pictures. At the game we sold water for 1 dollar and that money went to help out local humane society that recently saved over 100 animals form a hoarder’s house. They are in desperate need of supplies so the money help. I did not mind going to the game and taken pictures no one in my sorority played because we set up the tournament.
The best part of the weekend was finding a huge charity event to raise money for American Cancer Society, that I could fully participate in. Its not a marathon, bike race or some type of walk. Its called a Rock~A~Thon. The Rock~A~Thon is where you get a team of 3 or more people on a team and they must keep their rocker moving the entire 12 hours. I could sit the entire time and no one would think about it I can stay awake all night(7am-7pm). When I got tired of rocking I could lay on the floor some people even slept between their turns. I originally was not going to be there the whole night but one of the girls on Twins team was sick and having a hard time so I stayed and kept people talking and moving. I had a blast. The event was 12hours and there were live bands, dancing, food, visitors, games and all kinds of great things to do. The best part about the day was that I found something any of my friends with disabilities could do. There is no limit to how many people you can have on one team and you don’t have to sit in the rocker just keep it moving so you could push it from the side or even bump it.
