The Outdoor Adventure Relay is less than 2 weeks away. Sign up has been
slow so far, with just 20 people signed up... which means as few as 1
person for some of the legs. I know that life is busy but this is
really important... Please make time if you can to get involved.
I
sense that many more people are interested and intending to go on the
relay, but haven't made the commitment yet. Any help you can offer in
helping spread the word and encouraging participation would be
outstanding.
At the rally, we have confirmed bands such as Tambura Rasa (
http://www.tamburarasa.com/) and Jarimba (African drumming;

as well as speakers including Senator Mobina Jaffer (fmr Canadian
Special Envoy to Darfur), MPs Hedy Fry and Libby Davies, Clive Ansley
(International Human Rights Attorney), Devin Tucker, MD (worked in
Darfur/Chad). We just formed a coalition with Canada Tibet Committee to
double our impact... and the media is starting to pay attention to the
event. Lots of excitement. Now we just need participants!
Remember that sign-up is free. Here's the link

We'll be joining the rally
I will get the kids and husband organized for the final rally. We should be able to hook up with the bikers coming from Deep Cove and join them somewhere between the Quay and Lions Gate. We just need to know the course. Can't join you during the week, although a ski day in Whistler sounds sweet ;-)
