Thankful Thursday: A St. Louis Trivia Night

When we first started down this fundraising path last year, I considered having one in St. Louis. While I consider myself a Tennessean because I've lived here longer than anywhere else, I lived in St. Louis until I was 12, so I still have a connection with it. Plus, the majority of my very large family lives there. I knew it would be more likely to get everyone to a fundraiser where they live rather than everyone coming here. However, the logistics of planning an out-of-state fundraiser seemed difficult to say the least.
I changed my mind this summer and several of my cousins, aunts and uncles pitched in with the planning. November 8th was the big night and it went great!! Trivia nights are pretty big in St. Louis, so it was a great venue. Lots of family and friends came out to support us, thank you!

The raffle baskets my aunt Rose and I packaged the night before:

Like I said, the night went great, we raised $4,007 for Maggie in Motion! You can read more about the breakdowns here if you like: http://maggieinmotion.lotekness.net
