Rummage Sale for MS Society

My daughter Ashley are looking forward to riding in the MS Bike Ride; Pedal the Plains which takes place Aug. 2nd & 3rd. This is a two-day ride and goes from Sioux Falls to Vermillion and back this year. We are both proud members of Team Road Kill.

We held a rummage sale on Saturday. We had been collecting items or almost a year now and it was a great feeling to get the growing pile of "stuff" out of my basement! The sale was a success, taking in aound $400 which we'll divide and donate to the MS Society as part of our fundraising efforts for this year's bike ride.

We posted signs stating the money raised would be donated to the MS Society which many people commented on. I think our rummage sale in a small way raised awareness of the disease and the activities of the MS Society to fight the disease and provide support for those with the disease.
