Recap from my Fundraiser
Sunday, July 18th, 2010We had a wonderful fundraiser this last week at Beverly & Max Balthrop’s home, and I wanted to thank everyone who contributed to the event. Here is an email that one supporter who attended sent to her friends and family:
Hey there!!!
We just got home from a GREAT fund raising dinner held at Beverly & Max Balthrop’s home just down the street from us! What a delicious meal they served (Beverly did all the cooking and it was absolutely gorgeous too!). We were entertained by Jinx Pyle who sang us some great cowboy songs playing a guitar that once belonged to Johnny Cash! He has such a great voice and a real straight forward way of telling a story – he told about his Grandfather who was the second constable in this area – and the man who was the first too, but I don’t remember his name (sorry) and then told why he was voting for Colt – the same reasons we are backing him – he’s been here for 34 years (we’ve been here for 30 and have known him all that time) – worked in law enforcement for 18 years – as well as worked in his family’s business for 23 years, so he has business background too! His family are all just great – I love his wife and his kids! What a wonderful group! You can tell a lot about a person by looking at their family relationships – anyways – then Colt talked about his campaign and thanked us all for coming – and then thanked the Balthrops and all the people who helped serve the dinner and we all had a good time visiting. I don’t know if all of you know him – but we do and think so very highly of him… we know he is the man for the job and hope he gets it!
Love you all – Nancy (Gartner)
