Month of August: Marathon in honor of Andi Szabolcs, info from Andreas Tabor: As many of you know my wife Kris and I as well as Gina Uline from my office trained for and completed the 26.2 mile Rite-Aid Cleveland Marathon. Another close friend, Elizabeth Balassy completed the 13.1 mile half marathon and I'm sure there are others out there who's names that I don't know trained for and completed other endurance events all in Andi's honor. When Andi went back into the hospital in June, I commited to do a 100 mile endurance event called the Seagull Century 100 mile Bike ride the first weekend of Oct. Details of my envolvement in this 100 mile endurance event can be found @ http://www.active.com/donate/tntnoh/TeamTabor. Since many of you donated to the Cleve. Marathon Team in Training event through me and the others for the race as well as to the Andi Szabolcs Memorial Scholarship fund I had wanted to avoid asking any of you for a $$ donation for this event. Thankfully I've had 3 corporate donations ( including a corporate donation from the leaders of my Hungarian Boy Scout Troop 14!) that helped immensely. As of today's date I am just $702.00 short of the minimum fund raising Aug. 29th qualification goal. I'm sending out this quick note looking for friends, family, clients etc. that work in or have a business that would put out a box of chocolate bars to benefit the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and help me to raise donations for my 100 mile Century Bike ride in Andi Szabolcs' memory. The chocolate bars have been donated to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society by the Cleve. Indians so 100% of the $48.00 per box cost goes to the fundraiser. Here are the details: What: 1 box of Harry London Wahoo Chocolate Bars. Where: Your business or place of employment or?? Who: Anyone that you know that would do this to help me raise the funds so that I can do the 100 mile bike ride in Andi's memory. How: Call me, Andy Tabor @ 216-235-5352. If the business can pre-write a check to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society for the $48.00 cost they will re-coup the whole amount while still supporting a great cause. When: ASAP Thank you all for your support and words of encouragement. Bandi/Andy/Andreas

Month of September: Marathon in honor of Andi Szabolcs, info from Andreas Tabor: As many of you know my wife Kris and I as well as Gina Uline from my office trained for and completed the 26.2 mile Rite-Aid Cleveland Marathon. Another close friend, Elizabeth Balassy completed the 13.1 mile half marathon and I'm sure there are others out there who's names that I don't know trained for and completed other endurance events all in Andi's honor. When Andi went back into the hospital in June, I commited to do a 100 mile endurance event called the Seagull Century 100 mile Bike ride the first weekend of Oct. Details of my envolvement in this 100 mile endurance event can be found @ http://www.active.com/donate/tntnoh/TeamTabor. Since many of you donated to the Cleve. Marathon Team in Training event through me and the others for the race as well as to the Andi Szabolcs Memorial Scholarship fund I had wanted to avoid asking any of you for a $$ donation for this event. Thankfully I've had 3 corporate donations ( including a corporate donation from the leaders of my Hungarian Boy Scout Troop 14!) that helped immensely. As of today's date I am just $702.00 short of the minimum fund raising Aug. 29th qualification goal. I'm sending out this quick note looking for friends, family, clients etc. that work in or have a business that would put out a box of chocolate bars to benefit the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and help me to raise donations for my 100 mile Century Bike ride in Andi Szabolcs' memory. The chocolate bars have been donated to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society by the Cleve. Indians so 100% of the $48.00 per box cost goes to the fundraiser. Here are the details: What: 1 box of Harry London Wahoo Chocolate Bars. Where: Your business or place of employment or?? Who: Anyone that you know that would do this to help me raise the funds so that I can do the 100 mile bike ride in Andi's memory. How: Call me, Andy Tabor @ 216-235-5352. If the business can pre-write a check to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society for the $48.00 cost they will re-coup the whole amount while still supporting a great cause. When: ASAP Thank you all for your support and words of encouragement. Bandi/Andy/Andreas
