Dearest Friends,

We used to believe that things happened for a reason but now we believe that it is up to us to find the connection in our own lives and with Shelley's death find a way to honor her memory in a very positive way.  We have learned how one life lived with passion can have a profound effect on others.  We understand, more than ever, how closely connected we all are and how, when one of those powerful connections are gone, how tightly the rest of the fabric pulls together to heal.  All of you have helped us heal and we will be forever grateful for your kindness.  We are keenly aware of the challenges of the current economy but by working as a team we know that this is an achievable goal.

This month we are launching an endowment to reach $25,000 for the Shelley Glover Sports Education Foundation (SGSEF) by Shelley's 25th birthday May 14th 2011.  This endowment, the September 18th Century and Half Century ride and the July Kids Swimming for Kids Events  will support Shelley's dream that kids have access to sports, specifically Alpine and Nordic Skiing, Soccer and Swimming, Shelley's favorites.

Shelley would not have been the person and athlete that she was without the support of all of her friends, teachers and coaches.  Please join us in leaving a legacy that supports the following:   

The Shelley Glover Sports Education Foundation (SGSEF) is a non-profit organization founded
To honor Shelley Glover, a gifted athlete and compassionate leader.  SGSEF is dedicated to promoting athletic activities and competition for youth of all ages and abilities with a focus on Shelley's favorite sports, skiing, soccer and swimming.
