SpiderMable to the Rescue!!!

This is just so awesome and fantastic. I must say I *KNEW* it was going to be a Canadian city who would have so much heart and love to create the next Batkid-style wish day :) I am just overjoyed at seeing this story.

In true Canadian style, the most important person in town is the Captain of the hockey team... and so when he was kidnapped, Spider-Mable had to spring into action!! Totally incredible ziplining at the West Edmonton Mall, the Edmonton Police Department in full support and totally involved in this magical day... oh man. I just love it.

Congratulations to Edmonton, and I must say, I am very proud of my homeland to have pulled off another amazing, intricate, uplifting day for a young child. Well done, and the SFBatkid team salutes you!

"Batkid Begins" | Talks at Google

Hello Blog-reading friends -- sure has been a while since I have posted. Things are great but VERY busy lately. Something fun I did last week -- Dana, Patricia and I went to Google and participated in their excellent Talks at Google speaker series, chatting "Batkid Begins" and all the fun and madness, joy and love and dedication that went into this effort, and sharing some stories about why the Make-A-Wish day was such an important story for us to share.

Enjoy!
