Ryan's mom told me about this competition for a game room makeover for the UI Children's Hospital. BUT IT ENDS TODAY, FRIDAY THE 16TH. Here is the article. If you all want to join me in voting for UI Children's Hospital that would be great! We are way ahead according to the numbers, lets keep it going to the kids down there can have a wonderful getaway from their illnesses.
Friday is the last day to vote for a hospital in the “Gameroom Giveaway,” an online contest sponsored by Xbox360 and Children’s Miracle Network, an international non-profit group that raises funds for 170 children’s hospitals. In the contest, which started in early September and is open to all hospitals affiliated with the Children’s Miracle Network, allows people to vote up to 10 times a day for the hospital of their choice. The three hospitals with the most votes overall will each win a $10,000 gameroom makeover.
As of 9:55 a.m., UI Children’s Hospital had the most votes at 1,887,006, about 29,000 votes ahead of their closest competition, Hurley Medical Center of Flint, Mich. The Iowa hospital also was more than 42,000 votes ahead of fourth-place Blair E. Batson Hospital for Children at the University of Mississippi Medical Center in Jackson, Miss. If the standings hold, UI Children’s Hospital would be the winner of the gameroom makeover.

We had a great experience at the children's hospital this summer. Can't even complain about anything we experienced on the children's floor. So we are happy to try to help contribute to this cause.
So this website is taking a long time to load so maybe after 5pm it will be quicker if you want to try tonight.
