Spaghetti Feed

James is serving as Class President this year, and as part of his responsibilities he has been working as the Co-Chair of the ISU College of Pharmacy's 20th Annual Spaghetti Feed. It is a huge fundraising event that supports a local Make-A-Wish child. There was a great turnout and the event raised over $20,000 for a sweet little boy and his family!! There were silent auctions, a live auction, raffles, and of course dinner. Our group won the bid for an authentic homemade Mexican dinner at the Dean's house. Woo hoo!! James and his friend Carter were hoping to get the guided fly fishing trip, but the bidding was way out of our price range. ;) It was such a fun night and I was so proud to see all of James' hard work be a success. Next year he is the Chair of the whole event, so everyone be ready to come support!! :)

Way to go James! He's a trooper for taking that on while in school AND working! I don't doubt that he (and you) do an awesome job though. Tell James to come down here and Jake will take him on a fishing trip. He goes shark fishing almost every night he can possibly manage to!

---Lauren again, on Jake's account. Silly boy.
