I was recently invited to take the Ice Bucket challenge to support ALS (Lou Gehrig’s Disease) by long-time friend, Holly, and accepted her invitation. This entailed me making a donation to the ALS Foundation, inviting 4 other people to take the same Ice Bucket challenge, and having a bucket of cold ice water dumped on me all within 24 hours of my invitation from Holly. Well, the challenge was on…
I figured out my video of the challenge would take place just before my work day at Annie’s Woolens was done. Had a busy day at work but, 20 mins. before quitting time, I filled up my bucket with cold water from the outside tap, dumped a full container of ice maker ice into the bucket, grabbed my camera with the proper settings and called out my co-workers who were all too happy to assist me.
And so it was: a cold ice bucket challenge with donation for a very worthy cause – makes me feel good and we all had fun! Perhaps your names will be called out to take the challenge. I encourage you to put it out there, have some fun with it and make a serious, well-intended donation to the ALS Foundation. Enjoy the YouTube video below.
