Cobra Classic for Ronald McDonald House

This memorable Sunday was full of celebration, remembrance, amazing hats and some beautiful polo ponies as Ronald McDonald House celebrated the 7th annual Cobra Polo Classic.  I was blessed to to help out at the event and witness Spokane at its finest.

The day started with a memorable tribute to 9/11 and included skydivers holding banners of children who had stayed at the house during their battle with cancer.  I was able to witness my first polo match and help serve champagne to all during the stomping of the divots.  For all of this I have only word AMAZING.

Thank you to Ronald McDonald House for allowing me to be part of this amazing day!

About Me

My photo
Spokane, Washington, United States
Growing up in a small rural community in Eastern Washington allowed me to discover and grow into the woman you see now. I was born on March 4, 1965 in the Othello hospital and 18 years later graduated from Othello High School ~ go Huskies! I am now a wife, mother, and grandmother. I am deeply committed to emotional and physical health and work diligently to strengthen both my mind and body through exercise. I am a graduate of Whitworth University ~ go Pirates, and Gonzaga University ~ go Zags! My passion is focused on mentoring the youth in our communities by showing them the power of critical thinking and authentic leadership. By applying the principles of emotional intelligence we can successfully arm our youth with the tools to move our global community to the next level. I am currently involved with Big Brothers & Big Sisters as well as HOBY. Both of these organizations share my passion for youth leadership in the community. In addition to youth leadership I am involved with Vanessa Behan's Crisis Nursery. I urge you to view the links I have provided so that you may learn more about these special organizations.
