Homemade Granola Bars!

So for our latest team fundraiser, our team is making some really yummy homemade granola bars! We are selling them for $2 each, and they have Cranberries, Blueberries, Pecans, and Sunflower seeds. Not only are they homemade granola bars they are ginormous! and very yummy..I may be a little biased but they are selling like crazy at this time we are making about 2 batches a week and each batch has about 190 granola bars. So yesterday 5 of us got together and made a few different batches making about 400 bars so hopefully this will last us the week. Let me tell you this is a process! we started at 10am toasting all the oat and nuts, and making the syrup and we finished with making the granola bars about 2pm..We didn't even get to cut them yet! we were only about half done! But it was a ton of fun! If anyone is interested in purchasing some granola bars please contact one of the team members!

Training For the First Time!!

Well today was the first Official team training day! Our team did really good we managed to walk 5 miles in an hour and a half! which is well above our goal of 3mph! We have 29 weeks left before our Walk. It feels really good to get out training with the team..it gives us time to connect with each other in aways we havent. I can't wait for our next team walk..and we are aiming for 6 miles this time.
