Weekly Update 1: 18th May 2007

When we decided to take part in the Britballrun neither of us was thinking very far ahead and on deciding on our team name we picked something that was relevant to the car and the outfits we will be wearing.

Since then many things have happened and we now both feel sure that we will be keeping our fundraising efforts in memory of Rose going for many years to come. As Team SMARTies is really just our team name for the Britballrun we felt that we would need a 'name' once August was over. With this in mind we asked the members over at DPChallenge if they would help design us a logo for the future. We were very sure of what we wanted included and were very happy when Leisha came up with this logo:

The name RoseBuddies was suggested by our friend, Ruth, and felt right as soon as we heard it.

In the coming months, as well as the name Team SMARTies, you may well hear us mention RoseBuddies and now you all know where it ties into things!

We also thought it was about time we gave the Auction items their very own little section here on the site, so, with a bit of luck you should now see a new addition to our main menu on the left of this page!

The Auction items page can also be found HERE

It's definitely the time to say a HUGE thank you to Dave, our webmaster! He certainly puts up with a lot of hassle and has never once complained - cheers Dave!

Finally we have been overwhelmed by the support each of you has shown us! Donations to date stand at £3,000!!

We'd both like to say a BIG thank you to all of you for your continued support of our fundraising efforts, it really means a lot to the both of us!

All the best,

Natalya and Andrew
