Dancing Stars of Central Georgia

Ain’t too proud to beg

Jack and I have been kicking butt with our dance routine, enjoying every minute of our rehearsals, and being really excited to support the Alzheimer’s Association of Georgia.  But he is busy with running a business, shooting approximately 400 movie and TV projects, and hanging out with his gorgeous wife and 4 adorable kids, in addition to working on his mad tango skillz.  Not much time left to shake the money tree!  He was discouraged to find last week that he is in last place in the fundraising for Dancing Stars of Central Georgia.  We want to make sure we hold up our end both on and off the dance floor.  So at the end of rehearsal today we made a little video appeal:

Maybe the reason Jack is last in fundraising is that he can’t get the website URL right?  That’s www.dancingstarsofcentralgeorgia.com, people!  Click on “Vote for Jackson Walker” and donate the amount that’s right for you (as they say on public radio).  How can you say no to those faces?

I R FAMUS TV PERSONALITY

Check it out, dear readers! Last Friday I was on NewsCentral “Live @ 5” with host Kenny B and fellow guests Karen Kinsler (development director for Alzheimer’s Association of Central Georgia) and Portia Lake (NewsCentral anchor and “star” dancer for Dancing Stars) talking about Dancing Stars of Central Georgia. Be sure to watch all the way to the end when I lay some trash talk on Portia!
