$11,834.62 for Kupenda
$20,000 is the goal for Kupenda. That is the amount needed to build a boarding facility so that 30+ children, who have disabilities, will get to go to school!!! It is a chance to really make a difference in a lot of people's lives!!!

$8,936.00 for ADA
Battling diabetes is something that is close to our hearts since Adam has Type I Diabetes. AFC's mission at it's core is to raise awareness, show other diabetics that anything is possible, and to do anything to combat diabetes!

Today was another great and easy day of RAGBRAI riding. Doing only 48 miles! And tomorrow is only 45 miles!! That will gaurentee we are well rested for our long ride from Muscatine, IA to Chicago, IL. We will be sure to properly hydrate and we won't push too hard on our way to Chicago. Good news is that it won't be nearly as hot as it was on the day we rode 150 miles.

When we got to Coralville, IA today we setup for the expo! It was great. We had a prime spot and we talked to tons of people. We also raised a good bit of money selling T-Shirts and getting donations.

We are goingto try to find a place to do our karaoke tonight!! We have not missed a state yet for our goal of doing karaoke in every state we visit and just because we are doing RAGBRAI shouldn't mean we will miss Iowa.
