New, new, NEW

Alright, lots of new stuff. This post is mostly gonna be about lots of the new stuff that's going on that you guys don't know about yet (I think).
First of all, my sister Charlee mentioned that she hates reading through all this, and would much rather these updates be in a video. So, I made a Do Something Youtube account. Here's the link.
http://www.youtube.com/DSofOR. If you have a Youtube account, please subscribe so you know when there's updates. If you don't have a Youtube account, well, first of all, in my opinion, you should get one. Youtube is amazing. =] But if you really don't want one, I'll know, because you won't be subscribed, and I have all of your emails (or cell numbers) so I'll just let you know there.
If there are still some of you who like the blog better, I will keep posting. If none of you end up reading this (not much of a change there, cough cough. =P) please let me know. I'm trying to do what's best for you guys, and if this is a waste of my time compared to making videos, just tell me!
Next thing. Charlee's softball team had a great season, even if it was only 5 days. For the past week, Charlee has been playing catcher for the first time, and lucky for us, we found her a great personal trainer to help her out, named Kelly. Great Courtney, what the heck are you getting at?
WELL, after getting to know Kelly, my mom found out that she is going to perform at Tianamen Square in Beijing for the Olympics as part of a five-woman colorguard from OSU. Wow, impressive, huh? And still, no point.
As you've probably guessed, that's gonna be expensive. So, since I was at my sister's games the whole week recording, I decided to make a team video. Then my mom came up with the idea to sell the DVDs as a fundraiser for Kelly to go to Beijing. Alright, here's the cool part (not that Kelly's story isn't AMAZING). Channel 8 News has agreed to cover the fundraiser! We don't know what day or time or place it will be at yet, we're waiting on the coach to call back and let us know. We're hoping it's gonna be this Friday, but I'll keep you guys posted in case you wanna help/swing by.
Okay, last thing. On July 26 at Tigard High, there will be a Walk-A-Thon "honoring ...an 'Optimist Club' charter member", which offers "youth organizations a chance to combine fitness with fundraising and win individual prizes". (The Oregonian, pg 17, Thursday, July 10, 2008) We should get going soon on this if we wanna do it. I'll need to email the coordinator to let her know how many people will be in our group, sooo please let me know soon if you can make it. I'll get the pledge packets faster the sooner I hear from you guys.
K guys, tell me what you think of all this new stuff that's happenin.
