Tracy Jacobsen is no stranger to the kitchen.  He has been cooking since the age of 8 years old back in Iowa and pursued a career as a chef that has spanned 30+ years. However, he developed a medical condition that changed his life.  He has decided to give back and came out of retirement in 2008 to make bread and share recipes to donate the money raised to organizations that have helped him contin

It was a foggy, misty Northland day when the P.I.G.S. Motorcycle Group held their ride to benefit St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.  Their efforts along with over 65 riders earned them recognition and a HUGE thank you from the kids of St. Jude.

This group of 60+ guys are honestly the kindest, most compassionate, hard-working volunteers I have ever met.  The best part is they have so much fun while they are raising money with their focus on Veterans and children.  This weekend they will be raising money for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and you are invited to participate in a couple of different ways.

It was a perfect ending to a wonderful Fiasco season of raising money for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.  Harold's Hog Roastin' Fiasco was well attended, the weather was gorgeous, the tables were full with people laughing and chatting and the food was outta this world!

Harold Ankrum, Kevin Koen and their crew of incredible volunteers are SUCH kind-hearted, compassionate people.  They started out with the Flapjack Fiasco in May,  the Golf Fiasco in August and now we're anxiously awaiting the 4th Annual Hog Roastin' Fiasco this Saturday.  The best part is that proceeds benefit the kids of St. Jude Children's Hospital.  Come for the food, fun and enjoy hand crafted

If you haven't heard, Harold's Golf Fiasco event made $17,000 this year!  I blogged the details previously, but I received more pictures and  couldn't pass up the chance to share them with you.  Are you or any of your friends in these pictures?  Feel free to share the love!

The weather was absolutely perfect for Harold's Golf Outing this year and everything was set for a record breaking day!  The amount raised was historic, just like the Harold's Flippin' Flapjack Fiasco that doubled it's total this year.  Read on for the total and some pictures from the event, as well as details in the upcoming Harold's Hog Roastin' Fiasco.

It's affordable fun for the whole family and it's coming up this Saturday, August 29 at Pine Hill Golf Course in Carlton.  This is the second in a series of three "fiascos" this year to increase an already fantastic fundraising effort for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. It’s always a great time, and the best part it's just $20 for 9 holes of golf!!  Here's other details of the day

Amazing!  A perfect way to describe this year's Harold's Flippin' Flapjack Fiasco. I am so humbled by the immense support that Carlton County gives through event donations, volunteer hours and energy and monetary donations for the kids of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.  YOU make the difference!
