John —

A couple of months ago, my dad and I cooked up an idea (we’re better at cooking up ideas than cooking dinner which we usually burn): On July 3rd, the day ballots are mailed, my dad and I and his supporters would mark the occasion by walking the entirety of Scottsdale Road – 25 miles from end to end.

We’ll be starting when it's still dark at the end of Carefree Highway, stopping to kick off a canvass and for a rally, and ending up at a sports bar near the Phoenix Zoo where I’ll be drinking a (root) beer. It’s forecast to be 110 degrees so that means plenty of water and that my mom will be regularly texting to make sure we’re ok and applying more sunscreen.

But we need your help: Will you sponsor our walk down all of Scottsdale Road? A dime a mile is $2.50, a dollar a mile is $25, and $10 a mile is $250. With voting beginning, there’s never been a time my dad needs your help more than right now.

Click on the map below to see how you can be part of this!

Here’s how you can be part of this exciting (and somewhat insane) effort:

1. Make a donation to sponsor every mile of our walk – a dime a mile, a dollar a mile, $10 a mile, I know that whatever you can do to help will be greatly appreciated by my dad and his campaign!
2. Join us at one of our stops along the trail.
3. Keep us company for some of the journey through the desert and neighborhoods and scenic office parks. Reply to this email if you’re interested.

I know my dad and I know no candidate will outwork him and no one will do more to go the extra mile to represent this community and this country in Congress – or even the extra 25 miles.

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

Thanks,
