Hello - 
 
My name is Anne Cressy and I work for the Make-A-Wish Foundation of
Illinois. We are hosting a bicycle tour through Chicago's North Shore on
August 5th called Pedal for Wishes.  Would you please consider helping
pass the word along to your bicycle club?   We spend most our money
granting wishes so our promotional budget for this ride is not great.
Any and all help would be appreciated.  
 
Date: August 5th
Location Start: Skokie
Register: www.pedalforwishes.org
Ride: 10-mile or 35-mile route through North Shore
Cost: $35
 
Thanks in advance.
 
Sincerely,
 
Anne Cressy

wish cost is $5,000) but helps the foundation reach its goal of granting
over 650 wishes in Illinois in 2007. Just find your 10 people, name your
team and choose the wish type that you would like to adopt! Find out
