Another great weekend...

Thank you to everyone who came out to Team Giddy Up's garage sale this weekend. We raised another $650 for the Breast Cancer 3-Day! We continue to be amazed at the generosity of others. All of the items in the garage sale were donated by friends and family with all of the proceeds going to our cause. Alicia's neighbors were having a sale over the weekend and were nice enough to donate 10% of their proceeds as well. Thank you to everyone who helped make this weekend a success!
