This event was so amaaaazing! The organizers did an incredible job. I want to thank Martha Schall, Doreen Tarascio, Gretchen Lunsford and Donna Hires for inviting me to do the keynote. It was an honor!
I was more nervous than I am usually, perhaps because as the keynote speaker I felt a responsibility to break last year’s fundraiser, and happily, they did break that record BIG TIME! Here is the evening, from set up to end (this first 15 second video is just because I could not BELIEVE how huge this room was – it had to fit over 700 people!)

 
I donated a school visit which, after the end of auction, ended up going for $10,500!

    Well you know me, checking your blog every 43 seconds to see if anything is new. Heh.
    So I love the second video, especially where the people taking the video are talking about how you’re relentless and if you’re given an objective, you just go after it.
    Yay!
