Dear Judy and Jack:
On behalf of the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Greater Pennsylvania and Southern West Virginia, I want to thank you for your choosing the Foundation to once again receive the proceeds from Cruise the Bay’s weekly 50/50 drawings and event T-shirt sales, along with cash donations from your Wishing Well donors and food vendors, from May – September 2011. We are thrilled that your proceeds totaled $1,900 ($200 more than last year – congratulations!), which we received on October 21, 2011. We will be pleased to recognize your donation on our web site and in our annual report.
One hundred percent of your gift will be dedicated to wish-granting expenses and help fund the wish of children like this special seven-year old girl. While the family asks that her name be kept private, I am able to share with you her story. She suffers from Pallister-Killian Syndrome which is an extremely rare genetic disorder. The stress and complications of this disorder can be unbearable for anyone, let alone a seven-year old kid.
When this little girl met with volunteers, they learned that she absolutely loves the water. From her perspective, spending time in the water is fun, but from her mom’s perspective it’s also therapeutic. A hot tub would be the perfect oasis for her to relax and escape from her sickness, and something she could enjoy year-round.
With a little Make-A-Wish magic, we found a vendor who had the perfect hot tub in stock. In less than a week, the hot tub was unveiled to a very happy seven-year-old girl; she couldn’t stop smiling. She hangs out and plays in it every day. Her parents are amazed at the joy and pleasure this wish has given her.
Thank you for your donation. Without your help, we would not be able to do what we do. Because of you, this little girl and her family are now able to experience an emotion other than sadness and fear. They are happy, excited and relaxed. Thank you again for your continuous support and generosity.
Sincerely,
Jan Stork
Regional Director

39 and Holding Forever!
Calling All Rodders,
Today, we put to rest a fellow street rodder. Jim Nuber, a great man who has influenced many car builders over the years. His wealth of knowledge and unselfish nature filled the car builders world
Many of you may have past through Jim's life and many more of you have learned some great lessons. There wasn't a mechanical problem he would not tackle and usually had it figured out before you picked up the first tool. He was a devoted Husband, Father, and Grandfather as well as a true friend he would drop everything for you in a minute.
He spent alot of his time with his family and friends going to car cruises and camping all over the United States. And for many years, towed his camper with his 39 and Holding Sedan. He will be greatly missed by all, but left us with wonderful stories and memories. He
will live in our hearts forever.
Till we meet again... We love you Jim.
