Our personal message:

Landon loves the color orange. He loves collecting things and doing math. He was born on Valentine's Day in Berkeley, CA. He has 1 sister who adores him even more than she adores cats.  He "homeschooled" his sister over the summer.

Andrew loves to watch the Virginia Cavaliers play football. He loves Star Wars. He loves to study religion and hike in the woods. He was born in Providence, RI, has 2 sisters and 1 dog. He took up golf over the summer.

They met at library storytime when they were 3 years old. Now they are both seven and share a passion for biking and helping people.  The idea of this fundraiser was born through a dream...truly, a dream.  One night one of them had an image of loading water onto an airplane and sending it to Africa.  This dream was the springboard for this fundraiser.

They are going to try to bike 12 hilly miles as a challenge...Pedal For Water...a bikeathon...on Nov 1, 08...and ASK YOU TO SPONSOR THEM IN THIS GREAT CAUSE.

PLEASE help Andrew and Landon HELP those LESS fortunate than them.
