Support the MDA Lockup in St. Charles, Mo

The staff of Get Promoted LLC is GOING TO JAIL FOR GOOD!!

Peg and Diane will be arrested on Thursday, August 26th and transported by limo to Ameristar Casino where they will be fingerprinted and take mug shots along with many other community leaders.   The reason for the arrest is good.  The girls are raising fund for the local MDA Lock-UP.

$2010.00 is the goal for them to raise.  It will take a miracle to do that.  You are part of that miracle.  Plesae give today.  We are giving Pizza Street coupons for any contribution over $13.00.  That entitles you to 10 FREE Buffets between now and Christmas and is worth @49.50.

The girls are tentatively combining with a couple more jailbirds to put on a community Pancake Breakfast the morning of the their arrest.  You are invited and all your friends!  If you know you are coming, let us know so we will have enough food.   We will start serving about 9:30 until noon when we get picked up.  There will be business networking friends, the community neighbors that meet for Neighborhood Watch, First Christian church members, Episcopal church members…and even a few Presbyterians!  Come enjoy the party!

The 40 diseases that fall under the heading of Muscular Dystrophy affect over 2000 families in the St. Louis metro area.  The funds we raise will help to provide support groups for these families and free clinics for medical services.  Funds will also cover research that is happening at Wash U, one of only 5 Centers of Excellence for Duchenne Musular Disease in the world.  The monies also cover costs for local kids to attend camp at Babler State Park.  It takes about 800.00 to send one child.

We have limited time to raise this money and hope that you will contribute.  Enjoy our slide show.

Local Labyrinth is a Labor of Love for Get Promoted Staff

Peg and Diane from Get Promoted were familiar with the calming and spiritual effects of labyrinths.  Now they are finding a different kind of joy by adopting and tending a beautiful labyrinth  in their neighborhood.

“We need to take walks for our health,”explained Peg Higgins.  “The labyrinth behind the Trinity Episcopal church was just close enough to be an easy walk, but more interesting than just a spin around on the street.  Here you could find a place to meditate…it was quiet and nature was all around you.”

Last fall, the labyrinth was falling into disrepair and it was hard to walk the path.  Peg asked the rector, Tamsen Whistler, is we could do some lawn care around it.  She readily agreed and even came out a couple days to help us locate parts of the path that were over grown.  Peg spent many a day with the edger and weed wacker.  Today, the bricks of the labyrinth are easy to see.  The pastor says she has noticed more people using it.

Here is a slide show of the site at 318 S Duchesne Drive in  the back of the church.

May need to adjust before you can view it! Also, it is three dimensional so you will have to play with the dials.  It will take a little time for the focus to happen.  Be patient, it is worth it!!
