Dear Robert,
The O'Club on-line auction starts June 4, 2009. However, it's not too early to start casing out the items.
There are many terrific items being auctioned off including a spot on the Far Away Cycling Feb 10, 2010 - Indochine Tour (Vietnam and Laos) which has a value of $2,295.
All proceeds will go to the Nepalese Youth Opportunity Foundation. The Foundation aids needy children in Nepal. There are NO expenses associated with the auction. 100% of the proceeds will go to the Foundation. $100 sends a kid to school for a year and provides his/her family with a goat or piglet, which helps the family become self sufficient.
Chantal has collected most of the items for the auction with some important help from friends. The goal is to raise $10,000.
Thanks in advance for supporting a good cause.
Ride safe!
Bob

What can you do?
 - If you'd like to donate an item to be auctioned off, there is still time. Far and Away Cycling hosts the auction site. Just let me know what it is and what it is worth and I will do ALL the rest. If Tom Cruise or Michelle Obama end up reading this and want to spring for a dinner....yeehaa!
- Place a bid (the auction starts June 4). In addition to the items listed to the right, there are restaurant gift certificates, entries to cycling events, a Blackberry Bold, artwork, wine, museums, tours, a bike fitting session, theater tickets, sports tickets, an autographed jersey from Caron Butler of the Wizards, use of a brand new vacation home in Nicaragua, even $500 of dental work! More items are being added daily. Click on the first link below to go to the on-line auction website.
- Help promote/create some buzz. If you have access (or know someone with access) to a Newsletter, Website or Blog, or if you have a personal page on Twitter, Facebook, MySpace or any other social networking site, please post one of the following links to ALL of your pages. It will have a BIG impact. Also please forward this email to your friends/family/acquaintances.
Your doing any of the above WILL make a difference.
Have fun bidding!
