Climbers Continued

So next on the list we have Amy Kaplan...spitfire this one. She has raised the most money thus far! When Amy gets something in her head she is determined...this will serve her well on Kili. She works for Capitol Records so she is taking the word of GAA into another arena! Amy is a mom of two beautiful kids who will be cheering her on from home with their dad Eric.
Then there is Tara Goff Kamradt, I always want her on MY side. Tara is a partner in a major law firm in Chicago. Her manner exudes strength and determination...she too will be served well by this on Kili. Tara and I share the role of happy single mom's....she is mother to Harrison who is the same age as Pearl. I appreciate a knowing glance from Tara at school...in the years we have known each other. Tara is bringing two important people with her...first her sister in law Leslie Goff who I have yet to meet. Tara tells us she is amazing woman and mother. She has three young children and one with special needs. She has focused very hard as a mom and career woamn and is finally taking some time for herself. ( notice in doing so she is fundraising fo other kids!). I look forward to meeting Leslie and I'll tell you more about her when i do! Tara is also joined by Kay Raso. Kay is also an accomplished athlete and a lover of Pilates. She recently moved to Colorado so she has been lucky enough to do some training at altitude. Kay rode in a super long bike race this summer ( I can't remeber the distance) it was over a several day span and covered a lot of feet up and down. Kay is leaving her Buff husband at home.
So I will finish the line up tomorrow...off to finish the details of our trip!!!! Starting to finally feel real!!!!
Love to you all.
Sarah
