In case you missed the news last week, Team Hot Shots climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro to raise money for the British military charity Help for Heroes. HSC Girl and Team Leader Kelly Hall and HSC Girl Daisy Watts (seen above enjoying a celebratory beer after returning from several days of climbing) joined with Ming Davies and Adam Edgar to make the ascent.
