Bob Says.... Whine No....Wine Yes!!


A Special Message From Team Bob - As Bob is closing in on his finish in St. Augustine Florida this Saturday Nov. 15th we are getting very close to our $71,000 goal of Bob's age of 71 years old.  We do understand that these are difficult economic times which does make it a little harder to raise funds.  But please note....Habitat for Humanity has built over 1 million homes World Wide!  Habitat is a 4 star charity and runs on an approximate 9-10% overhead which means for every $1 given, 90 cents goes to the building of a new home.  This incredible accomplishment is done because of Habitat's dedicated volunteer base.  As most of us know, home ownership is one of the more satisfying things in life, especially when it is your first home!  With Habitat's assistance of selling new homes at a low cost and low interest rate, it makes it possible for not only a working family to own a home, but to create a new safe neighborhood of responsible and dedicated homeowners.  Plus....Habitat is now working on providing Scholarships to those children who have grown up in Habitat Homes!!

Again, we have worked out a special deal with Humanitas Wine Vineyards, which has put together a special 6 bottle "Cycle of Hope Package" (click on link on homepage).  With a retail price of $139.00, they are selling it at $100 with $20 going to Cycle of Hope.  With the upcoming Holiday's approaching, please consider celebrating with a Humanitas Wine and know that you are also assisting a great cause!  We are $6000 short of our $71,000 goal and every dollar counts.  (Spread the Word to family, employees, customers etc...!)

Now... Team Bob as kept the following picture under wraps for a special occasion as we wanted to prove that Bob Frick will do ANYTHING to bring fun and excitement to this Cycle of Hope Habitat EB cause!!  Bob and Barbara have done an incredible job getting 3300 miles across this country and as someone that has fought Pancreatic Cancer and two Hip Replacements.....it goes to show Bob loves life and assisting those in need.  Enjoy this picture below along with others under "Photo's"  (p.s. - that is a mannequin)
