Okay, I thought it would be a good idea to give all of you an update of where we are. Summit Up has so much going on behind the scenes right now that I must keep you posted or you will loose track of what we are doing. This will change once I begin to climb, but until then I will try to let you know what is going on.
The Good- The big one is that sponsors continue to come on board. We are up to 13 now, and I continually work to talk with more. I would say that this is becoming more fun all along, especially as I become more confidant. Another good thing is that quite a few of my sponsors have been kind enough to go further than I expected, and are providing me with gear and other types of support.
The Bad- I haven't had as much success as I hoped with getting individuals involved. I think that this is in part because I have not climbed yet. Hopefully, once I actually start to put one foot in front of the other in an upward fashion, interest from the general public will start to build.
The Ugly- I always try to look on the bright side, but if there was one thing I could complain about, it would be our economy. Fundraising is never easy, and a sour economy makes it more difficult yet. Fortunately for me, my climbs last until 2013, so Summit Up will outlast the cycle.
Think that is it for now.
Life is good,
Mark
