What started out as a fundraiser to help save DooDoobo's (Rob Hopkins) life, (by helping Rob and his family out with the treatment costs, for the treatment Rob was receiving down in Arizona) has now turned into something much bigger. Since it just wasn't in the cards for Rob ( to me it's more like Rob made the ultimate sacrifice for others) The Rob Hopkins Memorial Foundation has been started, there is all ready another person ready to fly out to Arizona to receive treatment. This is only possible due to the generosity of people like yourselves folks. I still haven't heard the numbers yet from Saturday nights benefit auction, but I'm pretty confident we reached well beyond our goal.

Lots of great stuff donated by you guy's ............ so great I even bid on just about everything that came through the HCS pipeline, but I missed mad rush at the bid cut off and missed out, my wife, Murray (Takonna) and my neighbors were much better at this auction thing than me ................ maybe because they timed their trips to the bar better ?????

Big hitter of the night was our buddy Terry Weir (most of you know Terry as the guy we ride with that stores his MXZ 800 here at my place) Terry auctioned off his hair and was able to raise just over $3200, best part of it all was the fact that he didn't remember to fully charge the trimmer before Saturday night, yes he was stuck with quite the hairdo for the remainder of the night.

Also a big thanks goes out to Murray's wife Michelle for doing a great job on the poster recognizing those from HCS that contributed, sorry if we missed anyone, also sorry and thanks to the guy's whom I didn't get a chance to get to pick up donations, your hearts were still there.


Weather we've met over beers, rode some miles together, or just exchanged banter here on HSC, I consider you all friends and thank you all from the bottom of my heart. Hopefully we can all get out for a ride together next season .............. if so beers are on me

I didn't take many but here's a few pic's from Saturday night.

Nutter:

Looks like you guys did a hell of a job putting the event together - looks first class!

All of you who did the work are to be commended! thumbsup.png

P.S. I agree with Freeze - nice looking barber!

Looks like it was a great event for a worth-while cause. Glad it went well.

You are very welcome. Just ask any time you need any thing.

Cheers,
AL

(PS - who was the barber giving the $3200 hair cut? Personally I think it turned out well!).
