point three w and I see Feeling Good in the

Nothing from the headlines and feeling Good in the D today.
Today's Feeling Good in the D is a really feel
good story for us. Our eleventh year of Jay's Juniors,
and applications have been flowing in like never before. So excited.

(00:22):
You don't understand. The best feeling in the world is
for us to have to make hard decisions. Yeah, and
that is because we get so many applications and we
always have, but sometimes they don't flow into like the
week before things closed, and we want to get ahead
on things. We really want to meet more families. I
got a really nice letter from a woman yesterday who's
whose son is in Grand Rapids, and she, you know,
went into a whole story about his kids and the

(00:44):
tough time there going through. And I wrote her back.
I said she was under the impression that because they
live in Grand Rapids, and I said, no, We've.

Speaker 2 (00:50):
Taken Grand Rapeit family people from Grand Rapids before.

Speaker 1 (00:53):
I just have to be in the state of Michione.
I don't care you can hear us anywhere. I mean,
you know what, well we do, We'll just yeah, get
us the application.

Speaker 2 (00:59):
Yeah, I've been kind of just like briefly scanning the
applications that are coming in. And you know, we've had
kids with downs before, cancer and things like that, but
there have been so many illnesses that we've never even
heard of because we hear a lot of here, a
lot a lot of them throughout the years of like,
oh my gosh, I didn't even know that this existed,

(01:20):
Like I know, neuroblastoma, like you know, right, Like I
went to medical school.

Speaker 1 (01:25):
We hear it so much. That's something I never knew.

Speaker 2 (01:28):
Yeah, but there's been a couple where I'm like, I
would have never even known that this was a thing
that someone could have.

Speaker 1 (01:34):
So, so if you don't know about Jays Juniors and
you're unfamiliar with it, this is a program that's in
our eleventh year. We take kids with life altering, life
threatening illness to Disney World. All expenses, excuse me, paid
at Christmas. Amazing partners like Jersey, Mike's, Kroger Imagine Theaters,
Canterbury Village, Glenlore Trails, you have mascow. I mean, go

(02:00):
on and on with all of the great people that
have made Jay's Juniors possible over the years. But we
certainly thank them. Village of Rochester, Angels of Hope, who
is our charitable partner. Of course, did we say Canterbury,
So we said everybody, yeah and Larry, but get those
applications and remember you got to if you have a

(02:20):
child that is battling right now, you can do the application.
If it's your neighbor or your friend or just somebody
you know, have them, have the family do that it.
Famili's got to do it because it takes a lot
of information to get everything through. But we're gonna have
a great year. Just was going over some of the
itinerary last week, so we're looking forward to it. Jay's
Juniors is back
