CRUNCH TIME!

Hello everybody,

Well, y'all, here we are four weeks away from the end of this campaign, and it's crunch time. Right now we're sittin' at 61.1% with $1,314,955 of a $2,150,000 goal. Not too bad. We're gettin' there. These last four weeks are when a lot of magic happens, and we just got to stay focused.

We had our mid-campaign report meeting a few days back, and we had all of the reporting chairs with the exception of Bryan Daniels, who was away on business – so he says. I think he was still embarrassed by the funny video.

Just so everybody knows, Andy White's General Business Division came in first place, raising almost 75% of their goal. (General Business is up to 82.8% of their goal to date.)

Here's a picture of him accepting his blue ribbon.

I'm proud of Andy. He's become a true politician.
(Now don't tell him I said that.)

But it was a great report meeting, and each of our campaign chairs reported being on target to meeting our goal, which is wonderful.

Anyway, here we are with a little less than a month to go in the campaign. The hard work starts now. We've got a little more than $827,000 left to raise, and we're down to weeks left. And we've got a long way to go and a short time to get there.

It's time to get energized and refocused. That last lap is the hardest one to run, and it's time to run.

Blog ya' later,
Dave Bennett
