Dan,
This is from my good friend Dean Wagner. Dean and I went to
basic/AIT/Airborne school/RIP/ and then on to 2nd Ranger Bn. Dean continued
on with a career in Special Operations and lost his right hand in Iraq. He
came home and went through rehabilitation and fought to stay on active duty.
After he was cleared, Dean went back to Iraq for a 3rd tour to be with his
team. If you can support his worthy cause it would be greatly appreciated.

Subject: Help Me get Challenged Athletes to the Starting Line!
Help Dean reach his goal.,
I am taking on the challenge of a lifetime and I am writing today to ask for
your help. By you donating, you help my fundraising efforts and help me reach
my goal. Together we can help people with physical challenges realize their
dreams. Your donation will go to the Challenged Athletes Foundation; an
incredible 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that provides funding and
inspiration to hundreds of physically challenged athletes each year so they
can participate, compete and live life to the fullest.
When I arrive at the 2007 San Diego Triathlon Challenge Oct. 28th, I will
bring my wetsuit, my bike and my running shoes. But the money I am raising,
and the funds you are donating, will support athletes who can't always get to
the starting line: swimmers missing limbs, paraplegics who use handcycles to
bikers and runners who race using artificial limbs. Just like me, these
challenged athletes want to participate in athletics and feel the rush of
competition, but they face a major obstacle. They do not lack fitness, desire
or skills. It is only a lack of funding that stands in the way of their
dreams.
High tech running prosthetics are very expensive. Learning to swim when you
lack a limb (or limbs) requires special coaching, and handcycles can cost
upwards of $2,500. With our help, challenged athletes can bridge the
financial gap and overcome funding obstacles blocking their path to athletic
achievement. That is why I am challenging myself to make a difference in
their lives. Please partner with me by making a donation through my web site
link below. Join me in making dreams come true for challenged athletes. Give
the gift of sports and help get challenged athletes off the sidelines, and
into the game.
Thank you for your support,
