Sponsor Heather in the Bomberos 3-Legged Race Fundraiser!

HI! Brian Borjesson, the comandante of the Playa del Carmen Bomberos, (firemen) is holding a couple of fundraisers this week to help support their annual Fireman's academy, which provides the lion's share of the training that surrounding area firemen will get all year.

Many of you have expressed interest in the Bomberos and so I thought you might like to sponsor me and my friend Mayte (from Keith's bar on 10th ave.) in in the 3-legged Bar Crawl Race happening this Saturday, March 17. The race begins and ends at Keith's bar and includes stops at Manne's, Casa Tucan, Bad Boys, Beer Bucket, La Rana, and DJ's bar (and a couple more bars I can't remember right now). We have to each drink a full beer or a shot of tequila at each bar. Mayte and I ran together 2 years ago and although we did not win, we had a great time (and I did not throw up, like some other teams did ).

If you'd like to be partly responsible for my hangover on Sunday, please click here to donate to this worthy cause. No amount is too small or big.

THANK YOU to all the Playa.info peeps and my bosses for their continuing generosity.

I'll gladly sponsor you both. But in return, I require photo documentation of this event.

If all you want is a hangover photo, I could take one of myself right now and give it to you. Hanging out with Cosmo, Renee, cmsitaly, her husband Josh, Susie, Babaloo, SarahB, and Bufante is not easy on a school night.

OMG you guys are TOO freaking incredible! You guys make me cry with happiness at least once a week, I swear! I come in this morning to see that in less than 24 hours, you all have helped me to raise 405 usd for the Bomberos! Mayte and I are absolutely floored, for sure we know that we are going to raise more money than ANY other team and with you guys behind us, we're hoping to WIN this thing, too. Here is what we will look like after the race:

Thank you is just not enough.
