We originally had an event planned at our studio for the evening of June 12th.
As soon as Wendy was made aware of the Relay for Life walk, she cancelled our
event at the studio and signed up for the Relay for Life.
With only a week left before the event we were initially concerned it might
just be Wendy and me. Very quickly our 15 alloted team spots were filled and
over the weekend we had already met our team goal of contributions.
Wendy and I are so thankful that we re-opened Simple Abundance Yoga in Boone's
Creek a couple of months ago. The people who come to our studio are simply
amazing, joyful, and generous. We truly feel the sense of community that
embraces us!
We would like to thank everyone who supported the Relay for Life walk!
Peace & blessings,
Lamont & Wendy
Note: My apologies for those who helped that I may not have been able to take
advantage of taking a picture.

Our banner is a yoga mat

So for the evening, we lift our mat in support, put on our shoes, and walk the
pavement for Relay-for-Life!

Jasmine (our daughter) & Frank (her fiance) were quite the hit with their
face painting. They kept a line going most of the evening and watching them
with these children this night gave me assurance that they will one day be
wonderful parents.
