If there’s one thing to know about Susan it’s that when she decides to do something, she does it. Whether it’s going back to college or learning photography or tackling a project at work, whatever she chooses to do, she does. <\/p>\n

Last month Susan set a goal of raising $1,500 in donations for the Girl Scouts. The money went toward purchasing a tornado shelter for one of the local Girl Scout Camps. Earlier this month Susan organized a garage sale<\/a> and between that and some donations from friends and family, she met her goal.<\/p>\n

Everyone who met this goal was offered the opportunity to rappel down One Leadership Square<\/a> in Oklahoma City this past weekend. Standing 22 stories and 308 feet tall, One Leadership Square is the 10th tallest building in Oklahoma. <\/p>\n

Last Saturday, my wife went over the side of it while hanging from a rope. Twice.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Susan also volunteered to help out with the ropes, so she got a test run of the system Friday night. She said the system they used was unlike the ones she used back in college and had a ton of added safety features, including an automatic braking system.<\/p>\n

Saturday was the “public” rappelling, and both my family and some of Susan’s family came out to watch. Her time slot was 12:30pm so the sun was directly overhead and it was nice and hot by the time she got to drop down, but drop down she did.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

After talking with her for a few minutes on the ground it was back to the roof for Susan where she finished volunteering for the rest of the day. The kids, Dad and I hit one of our favorite hot dog spots, Coney Island<\/a>, before heading back home.<\/p>\n

Congrats to Susan on meeting her fundraising goal and for dropping off a perfectly good building!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
