Hi Everyone

Full details of Peru Rocks including the new website has just been announced.

I have the honour of being able to take part in Peru Rocks. I am absolutely thrilled to be able to participate after doing a lot of background work for the charity.

I wonder if you could dig a little deeper in your pockets and sponsor me please. It would mean a lot to me to be honest

I'll also bore you to death with photos and stories if you wish lol

Here is my just giving page

and for further fun have a look at my trekker page

It goes without saying that alarm fans are probably the best people to know in the world

love and hugs and cuddly stuff

I'm thrilled about this too!
Hopefully I'll get enough sponsorship to participate in the trek as well. Ahhhh, the satisfaction that you are doing something to help someone else. You can find my trekker page: http://perurocks.org/trekkers/nese-eddleman to make a tax deductible donation for US citizens. To make it even more exciting, my buddies Fastball are participating in this one! Woo-hoo!!!

Now everyone can be bored and battered by our stories and photos. LOL

Hi fellow-trekkers! Can you actually BELIEVE we're doing this!?!?!?
And hello, fellow-ALARM fans! YOU GUYS ROCK!

I am also privileged to be one of the online ALARM fans participating in PERU ROCKS with Katt, Jackie & Nese in October this year and would appreciate any donations you would care to make in support of the work the LOVE HOPE STRENGTH FOUNDATION does there.

My TREKKERS page, including my biography info (that includes some of my non-music-related reasons for taking on this challenge and supporting this great cause) and my donations page is at http://www.perurocks.org/trekkers/lyn-nelson/
if you would like to support me and recieve updates from my BLOG during the trek.

Also, if anyone is in the BOSTON area, or knows people up here, and would like to support my fundraising efforts, I am planning to hold several BENEFIT CONCERTS over the summer which MAY feature bands performing some ALARM tunes as well as songs featuring the theme of LOVE HOPE & STRENGTH. I'll post more info as it becomes available. You can contact me at lyninvenice@yahoo.com if you would like to participate as a performer, help with the events or know people who would like to donate or attend the shows.

Thanks in advance for your support - be it moral, spiritual or financial in nature! I'll take every bit of it gratefully & use it to prepare all the LOVE, HOPE & STRENGTH I'll need to complete this challenging once-in-a-lifetime adventure!

LET ME JUST SAY IT AGAIN: YOU GUYS ROCK!!! (And not just in PERU!!)

Lyn, officially in 'training mode'
as of NOW!!

Looks like our old friend from the NJ MUSICfest scene, the last 2 GATHERINGS & a trekker on EVEREST ROCKS! George Devanney is now joining those of us going on PERU ROCKS!!!

Looking forward to seeing you on the trail, GEORGE!!! If anyone knows george's username could you post it for me? I tried searching for it but couldn't find anything.

Lyn

Hi Lyn - Not sure if George has been on here in awhile as I have been reading posts but have not seen him here. Anyway he posts under The Alarmist. See you in July for the RTC tour!

Thanks ROCKERchic!

George did give me a shout out after I posted that message & I'll look for his posts under THE ALARMIST in future.

Just took a VIRTUAL TOUR of Machu Picchu as part of my 'training' for the trek. AMAZING!!!

Still need more FUNDS to meet LHS's first GOAL deadline so if you can give ONLINE this week at PERUROCKS.org it will go a long way toward getting me to PICCHU PEAK!!

Thanks again!!! You guys ROCK!!!

Lyn

Hi Katrina, Nese and Lyn. Fellow Peru Rocks trekker checking in here. I hope you are all doing splendidly with your fundraising efforts and I can't wait to meet you all in October. I am celebrating five years cancer-free on the 22nd of this month after a grim Stage IV diagnosis and Machu Picchu is how I chose to celebrate.

I am going to Atlantic City tomorrow hoping to see The Alarm. I heard the show had been cancelled, but I see the tickets are still on sale. Plus, The Alarm just posted a Myspace bulletin that still included the AC show. Nothing to do but hope for the best!

Is anyone coming to the Union County Music Festival? I plan to be there for sure. Looking forward to getting to know all of you!

Tracey

Hey Tracey, hope the show was fun for you. Not heading out for many road trips as my money has been spent for Peru. Still needing about $2222.00 to make the deadline, I'm sure something will happen but it's been hard being the only person in this area doing this. I know my boys (Fastball) aren't worried about it. Maybe I CAN learn something from them!?

Cheers and see you in a few months. I hope everyone is busy training...Lyn?

Everyone Loves Nese

October is cancer awareness month in Peru and Peru Rocks will bring more awareness and raise more funds for the people of Peru than any other single event in the country's history.

Please support me and Love Hope Strength Foundation in the battle against cancer.
