Incredible Weekend

Hi Girls,

I am just now recuperating from an exhilarating  weekend after volunteering for the Inaugural Baltimore Grand Prix.  I LOVE hot cars and this was such an INCREDIBLE event to be behind the scenes!  Had a primo grandstand location to work although the major issue there was they sold more tickets (premium dollar) than there were seats so we had to sooth a lot of ruffled feathers.  Stayed after my shift Saturday and was backstage for the Collective Soul concert, and got some great pics of the band and winning drivers.  

And probably one of the best parts of the whole weekend is that I almost forgot completely about breast cancer.  No one I worked with knew about my dx, and I never brought it up.  So I actually felt like a "normal" person for a weekend! 

Busted my ass working long hard shifts but it was incredible.  I definitely plan on being a part of it again next year.

Love you all,

Sharon

Hi,  Sounds like a wonderful weekend. I love it when I like a "normal" person and forget all about breast cancer. What did you get to do for the race?  SharonH

Hi Sharon,

I worked at a Grandstand assisting w/seating.  From what all the patrons were telling me it was the best view on the course, so I was lucky to be there.  Only BIG issue was the seating problem.  They sold 20 rows of seats in one section (most at around $125/day each) and only built the grandstand 10 rows high.  NOT a good scenario!
