This weekend will be the first JEB&Co. MS 150 group ride. Not only is it a group ride, but we are also lucky enough to be a sponsor for the wonderful organization, the Literacy Council of Fort Bend County. We have filled 8 spots with our team, spouses, clients and prospects. To top it all off, we have jerseys!! Well, they have been ordered, here’s to hoping they make it in by Friday!
This week I have begun sending out fundraising letters to our financial product wholesalers. I’m really enjoying this challenge. Hopefully, if I start early, our team can reach our goal of $4000.00 by February, giving more time to focus on helping individuals reach their goals in the last few months. The top two product companies to donate will get advertising space on our jerseys. We are also doing sponsor t-shirts that will display names and logos of not just financial product companies, but other small businesses and individuals who make donations to the JEB&Co. team. Through these emails, we have also gotten word that one of our wholesalers from First Trust UIT division is interested in joining our team. Having another rider, especially one on the inside of that side of our business is amazing.
I must admit, I haven’t really been training much, which I’m sure I will feel the effects of on Sunday. I recently finished up fall softball and this will leave more time to focus on my in the saddle training. I’m hoping a little cardio every day this week will help warm my body up for my 20 mile ride on Sunday, though part of me is really freaking out. We shall see!
Welp, I’m off to enjoy life.
