The walk is just a few days away, and the DL FT community has been so generous (once again) in supporting Russ and a great cause.

I was the first FT donor this year, and my donation was made nearly three months ago, as you can see from the start of this thread. In recognition of the great effort put forth by everyone, I have just doubled up my original donation. I hope that other "early donors" will do the same, and we can push Russ to his goal in the coming days.

Making a donation is as easy as clicking this link. They even accept the DL Amex card for online donations.

One remarkable fact has been overlooked that bears mentioning. According to the event homepage, Russ is the top fundraiser (I believe for the second consecutive year). Even more impressive is the fact that his total is more than two times as large as the next fundraiser. You will also note that Russ' Delta team is in the Top 5 as well.

Congratulations again to Russ for his effort. We look forward to a trip report after the walk. And again, there are a few days left to push Russ' total even higher!
