Our Kick-Offs Were A Great Success!

We had over 200 people attend our kick-off events and we raised over $20,000 in donations.

I would like to thank everyone who worked so hard to make our kick-offs such a success. I am so
honored by the love and support that all of you showed me and my family at our kick-off
celebrations in both Omak and Colville.

Omak Barbeque at Bob & Ronna Tollefson's: I would like to thank Bob and Ronna for
opening up their beautiful home and hosting a barbeque for me. It was a privilege to visit with so
many wonderful people. I would like to say a special thanks to Jim Detro, Jim & Cheryle Rowland
and Jerry Tretwold for working so hard to help with the barbeque and providing such incredible
support for our campaign.

Omak Kick-Off at the Elks Lodge: Thank you to everyone who came to our Wednesday night
kick-off celebration at the Elks Lodge. My family and I enjoyed meeting everyone; we had a blast
visiting with old and new friends! Thank you to everyone who donated dessert items for the auction
and a special thank you to Celia Campbell for donating one of her paintings. I would also like to
send out a special thank you to Representative Mike Armstrong and Representative Bruce Chandler
who both drove a very long distance to be at my kick-off. Thank you both so very much.

Colville Kick-Off: I would first like to thank former Congressman George Nethercutt for coming
to my Colville kick-off. As always, George was a statesman and a class act. So many people
enjoyed visiting with George again and it was such a honor to have him speak in support of our
campaign. I was excited that my mom and brother were able to drive up from Spokane to be at my
event. Again, thank you to everyone who came and who donated dessert items for the auction. We
all had so much fun; I was so happy to see everyone there!
