Ahh! I'm a big jerk. Fund raising got nuts, and I totally forgot to update this thread!
Hahaha, I got a great laugh (much-needed!) out of this, guys! Thanks so much for all your suggestions.Star, you should work in advertising!
As my friend's Dad is the one with the bigger emotional stake in it right now, I let her choose the name. She went with the less-entertaining, but more meaningful: "March On For Joe and Don" in honor of our two dads.
Although, I have to admit, I think you guys came up with better options.This walk is really for her, though. They just decided not to seek further treatment options for her dad, so she's gonna need every ounce of support right now. I've BTDT, and come through it. She could name it Moonbeam Sunshine's Boogie-Woogie Express and I would have agreed.
Oh, and as an update for you guys, since you were SO awesome about the names---we've raised over $1200 since I asked for your help with the names. Renewed faith in humanity in 3...2....1, BINGO!
