REASON FOR THE RINK UPDATE: THANK YOU to eveyone for all of the support given to my husband and family over the past few days. The response has been overwhelming with such tremendous feedback and moving stories coming from all over the world. When we started out on this venture some months ago we never expected in our wildest dreams that it would have the kind of impact it is having! For those that are interested in viewing some of the news stories please click on the links provided below. My husband has now raised more than $27,000 for our chosen charities (Easter Seals NL, Mazol Shriners and Rainbow Riders Therapeutic Riding) from his rink project! He has made so many sacrifices to help increase public awareness of these charities and raise money for them...I could not be more proud of him!

Many people know that my husband Todd has been working endlessly at building an outdoor ice rink in our backyard to raise money for our son Carters' charities...I am thrilled to announce the rink is finally completed! In fact, CBC News just left our home after interviewing us and captured Todd working on the rink. We have been blown away by the support from near and far and would like to share with you a recent article that was written by an incredibly talented writer of the Downhome Magazine..."The Reason for the Rink."
January 1, 2013
I am PROUD to say that my family has personally fundraised more than $27,500 in 2012 (Carter's Cupcakes, Easter Seals Stroll & Roll, Easter Seals Drop Zone, CHHANL Walk-a-thon & Reason for The Rink). Carter has been an incredible source of inspiration to my family and we are so blessed to have him teach us so many valuable life lessons. THANK YOU to all of you who have helped support us...we couldn't have done this without you! Wishing you Peace, Love, Joy & HOPE in 2013!
