Presto Pasta Fundraiser a Super Success!!

You may have had to wait in line to place your order for lunch or dinner at one of the 3 Ventura County Presto Pasta restaurants, but no one seemed to mind since it was FOR TONY (I know he would rather be standing patiently in line than lying in that ICU bed hooked up to a ventilator!) Thank you to Ken and Jeff Schuberg, co-owners of Pesto Pasta, for hosting this event and working your tails off the last 2 days.

Remember to go to www.pedeferri.com for the latest updates on Tony and sign the guest book (you can do it more than once).

The next fundraiser on the horizon is a "Swim for Tony" event to be hosted by Pleasant Valley Swim Club on January 24 at 7:30pm. For more information, go to http://swimfortony.eventbrite.com/

On Super Bowl Sunday, February 3, Josh Spiker of Inside Track in Ventura (www.insidetrackventura.com) will be hosting a 5K "For Tony" Fun Run in conjunction with the annual Ventura Half Marathon. Tony's family and friends, together with the entire Ventura area, invite all willing participants to come join in and enter either run/walk event as a show of support... "For Tony." All participants supporting Tony are requested to wear a white T-shirt with the words "For Tony" on it. A specially designed T-Shirt which supports Tony's fight for his life is available for purchase and ALL proceeds will be donated to the family. (T-shirt price - $20.00 Sizes XL L M). Go to www.venturamarathon.com for more details or to register for the event.

Thank you for your support!!
