????? - Canadian Challenge

 Dear Readers...

As you know, Allen and I were looking to attending and volunteering at the games. Therefore it was disappointing, to miss out on this opportunity to be with everyone and taking part in, what has been for us, a life altering event.

Another thing that was upsetting about not being able to attend this event is that, I was looking forward to personally introducing and promoting the banner project on a national level.

One of the things that I was hoping to do, while attending the games, was to issue this challenge .

BANNER CHALLENGE

What I wanted to ask was-

If individuals, groups or teams would like to help Canada set a world record for the longest banner?

What they could do -

They could get sponsors - have special T shirts made etc. and start collecting banners from their area and have them sewn together.After banners are done -If possible, send someone or a team - to Peace River on the weekend of May 5th 2013 -

We could then add their collection of banners for - the longest banner attempt for a Guinness World Record -

After this event they (the team or individual) could take all their banners home to help promote in their community and or province.Using Banners to promote in communities - 2013 to 2014

Since we want the banner recycled and we are hoping it will be used--(as Art work, made into quilts or clothing or accessories)

We believe and hope that by doing this, it could also help with promotion and fundraising for the 2014 National Transplant Games

It would be fun to find out which team, school, community or province has the largest collection of banners by May of 2013.

My personal Challenge - I've already personally bought enough material for the first kilometre and I am hoping to have a Kilometre done by May 5th

I would love it if someone could meet or beat my challenge !!

God bless and have a great day.
