What A Day! Recap of the Child’s Play Charity Auction’s First Day

I know some of you are probably wondering, “What’s with all this about Child’s Play, Charity Auctions, and such on a Hunter blog!?”

Trust me, we’ll be bringing you more hunter goodness throughout the week.  But Children’s Week only comes once a year, and you have to admit, Child’s Play is a truly great cause. 

For you that decide you’d rather complain, I get to pull the trump card and say, this is my blog,  Child’s Play has helped my family, and as such it’s this site’s officially sponsored charity.  Basically?  What am I doing wrong helping out a charity that helps give games, smiles and bit of enjoyment to sick kids around the world?

Here’s what Kristin  Lindsay from Child’s Play had to say:

Hi Eddie,

We’re very excited to see the Children’s Week auctions kick off.
Thanks so much for taking this on!

On a personal note, I’m glad to hear that your son has been doing well, and hope that video gaming has touched his life in a positive way while he’s had his challenges.

Regards,

Kristin
