Just signed up.I am looking forward to it.I am not sure how to get Dylan there for the picnic part yet...
For those of you that dont know,My son Dylan who is now 4 was diagnosed with Rhabdomyosarcoma last July.It was not looking good at all with the tumor having gone to a lymph node and 2 other places making it stage 4 cancer.I am a Carpenter by trade and its not a good time to be a carpenter in this economy and was about to sell my kayak thinking I could use the money and wasnt going to be able to use it much anyways.I read on Jims site about the moyer tournament last year and how they had sent a check for $7000 plus to the American cancer society.I told them that was a great thing they were doing and told them about Dylan.I didnt tell Jim or Matt that we were in any financial trouble or anything(even though we were).They gave us $2000 last year which was VERY helpful and I actually deleted the ad for my kayak on craigslist.If it wasnt for that I would have surely sold my ride and would have never held the 57.5" WSBeast in my Avatar.
Its been a long road this last year.being able to get out on the water has been a blessed release of stress for sure.My son is in remission and we are finishing up his treatment right now.Looking forward to seeing you all at the tourney and thanks to everyone who has helped us out along the way.
