Starting tomorrow, I'll be doing lots of hiking to help support Washington Trails during the whole month of August. I am kinda bummed cause in 2007 I already had raised $750 by August 1st, 2009 I had $700 already pledged and even last year, 2013 we already had $750 raised and this year I only have $250 raised....you guys have me worried!! I hope you can help me out by donating a dollar or two to the cause! I now things are tight, so if in years past you donated $50, perhaps this year you could do $10. If last year you donated $10, this year $5 will do the trick ...just follow this link and help me help Washington State Trails. If you don't like sending money over the internet, you can always send me a check (made out to Washington Trails Association -WTA) or cash to Amanda Arkebauer PO Box 16131 Seattle, WA 98116 and for those folks curious about what a BCRT trip is....here is a link to a trip Ryan did in 2012.
