A Shot at the Finish Line - Louisville - Saturday June 3rd, 2006

After the great time we all had in Indianapolis, we all headed to Louisville for the 2nd official part of our event. This was my second visit, I was at the Grand Opening of this cafe in May,2004. We had our own space reserved for us on the upper level & we had our own servers who took care of everyone's needs. Stephanie Marshall from the Louisville Cafe did a great job overseeing things & her fiancé, Jon Bridges, did a great job as a shot model....lol. We had a charity raffle/auction that benefited the Kentucky School for the Blind. Between the raffle, auction & a pin breakfast held the next morning, we raised $1800.00 - GREAT job everyone! Without the generous donations of items from collectors, Cafe's & Corporate along with the generous bidders & raffle ticket buyers we had this would have never been possible without any of you!

On another note, our Pre-Party host and friend to all, Dick Pruden, proposed to his girlfriend, Anita, at the Louisville Cafe in front of all of his shot collector friends! Oh yeah, and she said yes!! :)

Raffle and Auction Items for the Charity raffle & auction held to benefit the Kentucky School for the Blind, where we raised a whopping $1800 - Thanks to everyone that helped out and made this possible!

Our "shot model" Jon Bridges - Jon you did such a great job showing off those shot glasses for the raffle & auction :)

Yup........there I go again!

This was just TOO cute not to take a picture! The horses downtown were all wearing Fire hats because of a charity event where the firefighters were raising money for charity (My question is, where were the firemen!!)

So I thought I was lucky in Indianapolis that a firetruck drove by me but THEN after we leave the Louisville Cafe and are walking back to our hotel, there it is, sitting right there in the street, like it was parked there just for me....hehehe :)
