DMSE Gala

   After a great night at our fundraiser on Friday, Renee and I were right back at it on Saturday.  Thanks to our good friends Tom & Lyn we were able to buy tickets to the Dave McGillivary Sports Enterprise (DMSE) Gala, which was an event aimed at celebrating the fact that Dave McGillivary (race director of the Boston Marathon who I mentioned in a post back from January) has been involved in organizing, directing and donating to charities for over 30 years.
    The event was very nice and had a raffle / auction similar to ours.  I guess the only difference is that instead of $25 gift cards and 50% of a massage, they were auctioning off autographed bike jerseys from Lance Armstrong, 7 night cruises, tons of Red Sox memorabilia and more!  I bid on one item which was an Oakley Backpack ... but in the end I ultimately got outbid. 
    The highlight of the night was definitely getting to spend some time with Tom, Lyn, Chrissy and Aaron.  We hadn't seen them in about a month or so and it was a great opportunity to catch up.  Unfortunately, we had to take off earlier than we had hoped since we had a big run planned for Sunday morning and we were losing an hour of sleep from the daylight savings time change!  Regardless, it was great to see them!!!
