LoveYourBrain yoga fundraiser, a huge success

Dear Editor, The LoveYourBrain fundraiser Sunday at Base Camp Outfitters was a huge success with over 29 people attending the gentle yoga and meditation class. We were able to raise $615 to donate to the cause. LoveYourBrain is a non-profit organization working to improve the quality of life for people affected by brain injury. A personal family experience with the healing power of yoga and meditation and brain injury inspired me to participate. A huge and heart-felt thank you to all who attended or donated if you could not, Mike and Diane from Base Camp Outfitters for providing the space, and The Mountain Times for the great press.

Karen Dalury, Killington Yoga
