God, I'm hopeless.  I signed up and buggered up the review and now can't figure out how to change it.

Never mind.  I fixed it.  I'm not so bright today...

We need everyone's help. To date we have 25 reviews and our competition has 26 (Hopespring Cancer Support Centre in Waterloo) We are so close to having a chance of winning the $500 prize.

Please if you are/have been a volunteer or if you just attend the events, please consider writing a review - it will take you no more than 5 minutes to complete.

There are three more days left of voting. We need all the reviews to secure our spot.

Update*
We are at 34 reviews and are in the lead. Our competition, Hopespring is at 29. They could still beat us. If everyone who reads the forum takes a few minutes to rate us, we would win the $500 for sure.  If you have multiple email addresses you can write more than one review. I would just hate us to loose by only one or two reviews. Sad

We still need more reviews to get the top spot.

Just like Battle of the Breeds with Pugsley where our voters came charging in at the 11th hour to put her in the lead.
We should get a few more today between our own FB posting and the newsletter.
