Several adventurous people dropped “over the edge” from the roof of the 12 story high Howard Johnson’s hotel on Wednesday.

Erin Kuehl was one of the thrill seekers helping to raise money for Big Brothers-Big Sisters of Siouxland.

She paid for a raffle ticket to win a chance to rappel down the side of the hotel at 4th and Jackson;


OC…..for what they do. :12

Kuehl says she was confident and ready for the experience, but when it came time to “go over the edge”, she realized where she was:


OC…a lot of fun. ;16

Kuehl says once she reached the ground, she was ready to do it again.

All of the proceeds from the second annual “Over the Edge” event go to Big Brothers Big Sisters of Siouxland.
