Just passing this on!

I like to do things to help fellow designers on eBay. This is from a designer on eBay called sewgirlygirl. She has been trying to drum up votes for her child's school football game to be featured on the news. Could you read the note from her hubby and help them out?!!!



A note from my dear sweet hubby:

Friends and Family:

I want to thank each and every one of you for taking the time out of your busy schedules to vote on WSBTV Channel 2's survey to select our school, Prince Avenue Christian School, as the winner and recipient of television coverage this Friday of their football game. We have voters from Alaska to Ohio to New York to Georgia! The vote, however, is not over yet! We have a tenacious competitor in Forsyth Central High School. They have gathered an effective voting group and have surged from over 1,000 votes behind to take a 2,000 vote lead in just the past 30 minutes. You might ask why I am so passionate about Prince Avenue football. While I never put on pads to play myself, it is hard to look past the excitement created by Friday Night lights. I spent my youth attending almost all of my school, Buckeye Valley High School's, football games. We had just about the worst team in the state and seldom won a game, but every Friday night the stadium would be filled with fans. They weren't there to see a victory, but to support their school. That is what I am doing today, supporting my children's school, just as my parent's supported mine. Having attended two high schools, one large and one small, I have to say that the small schools out weigh the big ones in pure passion for their school. Prince Avenue is no exception. The passion these students feel for their school is infectious. Maybe some of you have started to get a taste of that already.

So, friends, family and neighbors, I ask you once again to vote and vote often, but not too often. Once every five minutes will be all that gets counted.

Here is the link:

Please feel free to forward this on to fans of small schools everywhere! Voting ends Friday September 19th at 12:00 Noon!

Thank you,

Seth, Sarah, Sam, Sean, Aimee and Ken
