FEEL THE BURN 2008!!!

Merry Christmas, Happy Chanukah, Happy Kwanzaa, Happy Ramadan, Happy Happy everybody!

Hope '07 treated everyone well, couldn't have been too bad if your reading this.

We're getting Feel the Burn 2008 started up, there will be a blog to accompany it as well, I'll post a link from here once it's up and running (January).

This year we are doing a motorcycle relay from coast to coast. Like last year which was such an AWESOME success--survivors, burn centers and FD's will all be involved. We are working on the route right now so if you want to participate, know a survivor who would like a motorcycle ride, know of a burn center, want to support in any way please let me know at mikethebuddha@yahoo.com.

Cities/burn centers we are thinking of approaching right now are: (not in geographical order)

Germantown, OH (of course!)
Branford, CT
Minneapolis, MN
Baltimore, MD
Allentown, PA
NYC
Columbus, OH
Dayton, OH
