    CNN will be selecting their 2010 top 10 CNN hereos in September. Please follow the link and check out the piece they did on AmpSurf. I believe Dana truly is a hero - he not only helps hundreds of injured soldiers, disabled vets and local adults & children with disabilities every year, but hey - he got me up on a surf board on one leg!!!  http://www.cnn.com/2010/LIVING/05/13/cnnheroes.****s.amputee.surfing/index.html

    Please recommend and share this link with others. If Ampsurf is picked in the top 10, CNN will donate $25k. If Ampsurf is picked as the #1 hero, they will donate $100k! PLEASE let CNN know you like the story. PLEASE recommend it to as many friends as possible. AmpSurf could really use this money to keep the wonderful programs it offers going! PLEASE vote!
