On October 17, 2009, I headed to Death Valley, California and participated in the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation’s Ride for the Cure.  I was among 165 cyclists who raised in excess of $750,000 to support research for a cure for type 1 diabetes.  Saturday morning, we ventured out on a 105 mile journey through the Death Valley National Park hitting the lowest point in the country and climbing back out.

I would like to express my gratitude to everyone that visited the restaurant on Sunday evenings and made a contribution to this cause that is very close to my heart.  I was successful in reaching my fundraising goal due to your generosity.  I would like to thank Erling for contributing over $2,400 to both Simone Loket and myself in our quest to support the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation; together we will find a cure, one mile at a time.

This was an unforgettable experience and I am already making plans for the 2010 Ride for the Cure.  Our Sunday are Special, $36 menu, will continue and I hope that you will join me.

Thanks,

Karen
