Called Robert today to work on some annual budget planning with Amy P. Budget and spreadsheet stuff. Yuck! All stuff that Robert and Doug are terrible at...and Amy is an expert at. She has set up a meeting with us via WebEx - where we can watch her work on her computer via internet.
She has custom designed a spreadsheet for him to look at and plug his projects and budgets into. Wow. I had no idea these things existed! This "should" make some pretty cool things happen:
- With an annual 2013-14 Budget, we should be able to see the needs of RWC Mission pretty easily. We are going to try and twist Roberts arm to put this info on the website/BLOG.
- It will allow any team (from anywhere in the world) to pick a project, fundraise (in addition to the team fees) and push their teammates to stay on track with project fundraising....WAY EASIER!
Do you have a skill like Amy that you would like to help with? Even if you don't....as long as you are willing and raise your hand....we can find something that you are good at! We would love to have another set of hands! Please email Doug at coach@sandboxathletics.com and we can help find a way for you to be a part of the team! :-)
Unfortunately, we had to slightly delay the WebEx meeting. He got a call that asked him to be a part of a team to help a lady involved in a kidnapping. Two men were caught trying to steal a 14yr old girl yesterday, who is now safe. She is in protective custody, and the men charged are in police captivity. Robert is driving the mom as I type this to see the Judge to allow the mom to be with her daughter. Life in Guatemala can change/adjust at a moments notice. As Robert says, "life on the edge"!
