Two Successful Fundraiser Events...

We've completed our first two Fundraiser events, and lets just say we're blown away. We absolutely cannot believe the amount of support our local community has shown us, the amount of money we have raised in the past two days is amazing. We will be announcing soon our new total amount once we get everything tallied up...keep a look out for that announcement.

There are now pictures of some of the people that have donated in the area of the site that shows "People who have donated"...check it out!

2 down 3 to go!!!

Spreading the Word!

We are soon to be in some newspapers and hopefully on some radio stations. We are working very hard right now to spread the word about this project, but we need your help! Contact your local news stations and radio stations and tell them about our project, spreading the word and getting donations is the only way we can make this trip possible. Thank you all so far for the current support, we hope to have some updates in a few days on new talent acquired for the project!

Incase you didn't see...

Under the video on the homepage of the site there's a link to all of the talent we have so far for this project, and our first talent we have confirmed is RAAB HIMSELF FROM VIVA LA BAM/JACKASS!!! That's right Wooden Steel Productions will be meeting up with Mr. Raab to film a comedy sketch for the "Skittin Across America" DVD.

We will be sending out a press release soon about this project, but until then begin spreading the word and donate even, there's a lot we need to make this trip happen, and we know you all can help us!
