February, 2017 – A Boost to Non-Profits

This month we had the chance to make a video about a fantastic annual fundraiser, The Great Charity Challenge.  In its 8th year, the event has raised over 10 million dollars for local charities.  The basic premise is that equestrian teams represent each of the 35 charities, competing for the biggest prize.  No one loses though, as even the last place finisher goes home with $15,000 for their non-profit organization.  It’s definitely a major boost to non-profits in our area. Check out the video!  The video was sponsored by the Wellness Experience and Wycliffe Golf & Country Club.  Check out the final results of the evening’s competition too. http://gcc.coth.com/article/urban-youth-impact-wins-great-charity-challenge-presented-by-fidelity-investments-at-the-2017-winter-equestrian-festival

Our travel writer Terri Marshall really gets around.  This month, she takes us “Romancing on the Rhine on a Scenic River Cruise.”  Even if you’re not big on cruises, she might just twist your arm to try a river cruise.
