It is hard to believe that 3 weeks from today Todd and I will begin our 16th annual 28 Hours of Hope. We began this labor of love to try to make a difference in the life of abused children in Northern Colorado. There is nothing more hideous to me than a child not being loved and adored as they deserve to be. I would like to get my hands on the people who hurt children because believe me there would be no repeat offenders because I would take away their ability to breathe.

Starting at 5 am on the 27th Todd and I will stay on the air, taking your pledges to help our cause. We need a record year this year. We really need to make the $100,000 mark this year. We have done it before and I know we can do it again. There are so many groups and individuals and schools and clubs and offices and families who are doing all they can to help us reach that goal. We will need you big time this year.

The artists are already lining up to be on the show. Todd just started booking guests yesterday and already we have locked in Craig Campbell, Parmalee, Thompson Square, Dustin Lynch, Eli Young Band and many many more to come. Get ready to do what you can to make a difference. You have the power to be a hero.
