Let us start with the fact that we live in the best place on Earth!

We would like to say thank you to everyone who took the time and donated the money to send Parker and Sunny to Camp Winfield. The boys spent a weekend there in June as first time campers to get familiarized with going to camp, and a week in August.

Fun is an understatement of what they experienced. Words cannot express how much joy Parker and Sunny have received by this opportunity. They swam in the pool, canoed on the lake, took part in plays, played mini golf and basketball, all the time surrounded by kids just like them and awesome support staff to cheer them on.

So a huge thank you to Clearwater! A big thank you to Ralph Sunderman and the Snow Drifters for bringing this opportunity to our boys. Also, thanks to Clearwater Fire Department, the Hosers hockey team, and Guy Holland for the additional financial support. We truly do live in the best community.

Parker, Scott and Krista Thomas
