The Big Bike

Last Wednesday was the Big Bike Ride for the Heart and Stroke foundation. The Regional Office went up against the Hospital team in a fundraising battle. The losing team had to wear "ugly hats" that had been made to mortify people on their birthdays. The Regional Office Taj Mahaulers lost. We raised just over 1500 and the hospital was closer to 2500...though in all fairness they have a MUCH bigger building and staff compliment. Regardless, we wore the hats.

I just don't see how this is a punishment. :)
Afterwards most of us donated our hats to the Big Bike...so teams everywhere may enjoy them.

I don't think it's a punishment either.

"Ugly" ? No no no. Creatively unique and spirited, I say. Well done! And after all, who had the more fun -
plain-heads or hat-sporters ? I think you know the answer to that.
