We dreamed we might get Dexter's name up on the People's Truck...
in a special way.
Last year, Dexter's name was on the truck - among the hundreds of other wonderful people's names.
This year, to help the People's Truck raise money for Camp Quality, we dreamed of having people sign up as a Dexter's Mate. We hoped we could get enough people to 'claim' a section of the People's Truck. We could never have imagined just how many people would join us...
Seeing the names together left us with an incredible feeling... a little tight-throated and very, very loved.
People from all across Australia became Dexter's Mates. Together, we raised $6725 for Camp Quality, through the People's Truck.
We worked hard at it, but it was all worth it!
To each an every Dexter's Mate, we want to say a very heartfelt 'thank you!'.
We feel touched that so many people are 'riding around on the truck' with Dexter this year. Today, the truck carried you all on its first job!
By becoming a Dexter's Mate, you showed us you respect us and are willing to walk a little while with us. For that, we love you.
Thanks to Nicole and Derek McMahon, for letting us claim a section of their truck.
Here's the Dexter's Mates section of the People's Truck:
(It was a very rainy convoy, but Derek and Nicole will let us take 'sunny' photos in the near future.)
for a documentary! The Dexter's Mates section was behind them!
it seems we will be doing it again next convoy. Next convoy is the 10th Convoy!
We have to do the Dexter's Mates again! You in?
