Yes.. it is true... everyone who donated to my fundraiser is a winner! woo hoo! And a few even won two things ;-) (which is always fun!) My little random number generator had a great time with this.
Where there are blogs that I know of, I have linked to your blog (hopefully I got you all)... if you don't have a blog, I will be sending you an email.
I hope to get your prizes mailed off to you later this week.
We raised $620 total, and another donation from Lisa is on its way after the end of the month (she generously donated a percentage of her May sales on Etsy) Thank you to all for your fabulous support and contributions to our chorus.... and
YES - we are going to Carnegie Hall in May of 2010.
(Payments for the trip begin very soon, thus the fund raiser now) Stay tuned to my blog, and I will update you about the trip in the future.

Wow - these fund raising things are a bunch of work! Hats off to all of you who have done this before me ;-)
And since no blog post is ever truly complete without a photo, I'll leave you with this glimpse of Kate's graduation.... more photos to follow very soon.
Thanks again to everyone.
