Hey guys! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL OF YOUR SUPPORT!!! Because of your help, my team and I were able to raise $57,980 for the fight against cancer!!! Words cannot express how thankful I am to y'all! The Waterski community is the bomb!!!

Hey guys! Thank you so much for helping me out in my campaign! I have reached my initial goal and I am trying to reach $50,000 so I can get a research grant in honor of my father. If you haven't had the chance to donate, the campaign ends tomorrow. Once again, thank you. My fundraising link- http://pages.mwoy.org/msla/laf18/ajones

Thank you everybody! I really appreciate all that you are doing and your willingness to share your personal stories.

Hey Ballers! My name is Adelaide and I’m new here on the site, (though I have low-key stalked my dad Mr. Jones while using this site for some time.) My dad and Mr. Horton have been friends for years. In fact, my most distinct memory of him was when I was little and visiting Skidawgs house for a tournament. He had just awakened and his hair was like a giant poof… (description of poof: picture cartoon characters hair when dynamite blows up nearby, and you’ll be getting close to his hair…) Anyway, thats a little background on how I know Mr. Horton and who my dad is. I recently decided to post on BOS for something really important to me, my family, and so many others… cancer. Most of y’all know my dad is a very private man, so he kept the fact that he had Non-Hodgkins lymphoma really quiet. He was diagnosed a couple weeks after the 2016 nationals. He has since gone through chemo and is currently in remission! He’s noticeably feeling and looking better, which is a huge relief to me and my family. Because of dad’s cancer, I was nominated to do the Student of the Year fundraising campaign for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (LLS). LLS has a ten week campaign called Man/Woman of the Year, and this is the first year they initiated Student of the Year in our neck of the woods… or should I say bayou. This great organization researches blood cancers and helps patients while they undergo treatment. Mr. Horton was on our list of people who we mailed letters to asking for support. He suggested that I post on BOS to give y’all a chance to donate who we might not have been able to contact otherwise. Dad told me that a number of you guys have been or are currently battling cancer. Please know my prayers are with you. One thing that I’ve learned about LLS is that often times cures or treatments found in blood cancers can be used for other cancers. Hopefully, the money I earn through this campaign not only helps lymphoma like my dads, but others as well. I just want to thank all of you for taking the time to read this, and thank you for your contributions.
