Dear Friends, Family and Fellow Boaters,

 

  Our entire family would like to thank you for your support of Boating for Life.  It means more than we could ever express, so many people supported us in our desire to be proactive.  And a special Thank You to Two Rivers Boat Club for sponsoring the event and all the business that supported our efforts:  Two Rivers Marina, Village of the Blue Rose, Show Management, Cookies in Bloom, Chassis Engineering, Hamilton Jewelers, Audio Advisors, Construction Appliance, Sunray Plastics, Decoration Unlimited Inc., Lammert Construction, Holcim (US) Inc., Lake of the Ozarks Water & Sewer, Bowling Green Auto Parts, Dale Bowen Construction,  Shamel Auto & Tire, The Home Depot/Chesterfield, Grainger, Glove Smith, Arteaga Photography, Hydraflow, Thunder Cycle, Bulleye Bait & Tackle and Steve Nowak Graphic Design.

  We enjoyed seeing many of you at Two Rivers for the raffle and auction.  Those of you who could not attend, the thoughts and prayers sent along with your donations were a source of energy for us all as we prepared for the weekend.  Because of your donations we had a very successful event.  We exceeded our expectations and raised just over $6000.00 for the American Cancer Society.   

  We look forward to the 2nd annual Boating for Life, which will be bigger and better.

 

Sincerely Yours,

 

The Rea Family

Kelley, Colleen, Shannon, Don and Christopher

along with our parents, Paul and Gail Rea
