Rumble to the Summit

Get your game on everyone! We need volunteers and watchers. Make A Wish's Rumble to the Summit will be stopping at Weldon Elementary on the morning of June 13th. It is going to be big...motorcycle lover's, or if you just want your face on TV, the Speed Channel's American Thunder show will be filming at Weldon. Also, their newest show(not yet up and running) will be called "Wish Ride" and have celebraties riding bikes to help raise money for Make a Wish...they will be filming footage at the Rumble as well. Weldon is the 1st stop for the rumble. The Fresno Heat hockey has sponsored this stop in memory of Natalia. We are going to have a bucket for spare change or bills(hehehe) for Natalia's Nest. The Nest will help sponsor families at the holidays, as well as, send students, who otherwise could not afford it, to the yearly Sanora outdoor ed. trip.

Usually, people would line Clovis Ave to see the Rumble parade. This year, due to financial considerations, they are not having the parade. Therefore, we are asking people to line the sidewalks at Weldon...show your support to Make A Wish. We know for a fact that Natalia's trip gave her great strength and comfort in her final days. She was given a couple months to live just before the trip. She came back from Cancun and was able to start 1st grade and lasted 8 more glorious months. During her "actively dieing" period she kept going swimming with the fish and asking her Papa to cut her pancakes..."it was the best vacation ever." How huge is that to give a child!!! Wishes can be anything...from a laptop, meeting a famous person or dream vacation. The point is that they do so much to bolster a child. They get a renewed hope that dreams can happen. Anything is possible! Please stop by and show your support. Check out http://www.rumbletothesummit.org for more information about events.

Much love,
