It is pretty great to be on the receiving end of a
fundraiser, but there’s something to be said for being on the giving end. Since Bennett’s accident he has received so
much…monetary donations, donations of time and talent, love, prayer and positive
energy. This has all helped and
continues to help his recovery. It will
be a long process, but he has risen to the occasion and continues to work hard
to regain his strength and mobility.
Today he will be on the giving side. Since the weather cooled off the fish turned
on. He and Wes have been “working hard”
catching some fish. Tomorrow Bennett and
Wes are hosting a fish fry to benefit the Savannah Skate Park. If you’re around stop by. They will be frying up some trout, redfish,
sheep head and flounder. There will also
be grits, slaw, chips, dogs, cookies and drinks.
When Bennett moved to Colorado he called home and said, “Mom,
every little town in Colorado has a concrete bowl!” He’s passionate about skating and pretty
stoked that Savannah is finally getting a nice concrete skatepark. Every little bit helps so he and Wes are
pitching in and hope to make a small dent in the big budget. Ben will be at the fish fry with the skatepark
plans for you to check out.
Hope to see you there!
