Whew! What a whirlwind of a day in Humboldt Iowa!
We had a prime spot in downtown Humboldt and luckily we were positioned right next to two pizza vendors, so we had no trouble finding eager volunteers to tell their cancer story and sign our Fight Back Relay banner.
What amazed us the most about our experience in Humboldt was the generosity and spirit of our volunteers. All through the day, local ACS volunteers came to staff our Mobile Action Center and worked to recruit more volunteers to tell their story to Congress.
I must admit, we had been a little road weary from our first couple of days on the road, but hearing the amazing stories of our volunteers gave us the push to move on.
We have collected over 500 Picture a Cure Stories and have handed out thousands of towels and tshirts.
Let's see if we can turn RAGBRAI relay purple......... In fact, I'm going to start now!
