First off, some good news about Dave. I talked to him last night, and he's feeling a little better. The medication has been rough on him lately, but he sounds good. He went to the doctor yesterday, and his white blood cell count has dropped quite a bit. That's good, it means the medication is working. Oh, and he loves the Bat Phone. He checks it everyday, so keep posting.
About our meeting and such...we accomplished some awesome stuff yesterday. First off, our list of "The Usual Suspects" has ballooned. We had our organization meeting yesterday and a lot of great ideas came out. We're ready to begin advertising, and I'll be posting the fees for the tournament this weekend. I'm going to try to get some posters done as well.
Pam Klier will be heading up a car wash at the end of April and Jaime Summers is looking at getting together a chili lunch or some nachos. When those dates get firmed up, I'll post them here. If you'd like to help them with that, let me know.
I contacted the Jaycees, and it looks like we'll get chips and cards donated for use during the event itself.
I'll post some more later because I need to get to school. There's still more coming!

About "Poker for Dave"
Dave Marquith is a one-man Criminal Justice division at Sheridan College and was recently diagnosed with leukemia. He's in Colorado Springs receiving treatment. John Molloy, Adam Burling and I are putting together a poker tournament, silent auction/raffle and dance to help defray his costs. We'll be doing some fundraising for the main event, which will be May 3rd at the Golden Dome on the Sheridan College campus.

Also, our please view our list of donors and patronize their businesses to thank them for what they have done for Dave. Our list of volunteers is off to the side as well.
