2001

The March of Dimes fundraiser was a huge success this year. Our goal was to have 20 team walkers and raise $500.00. We raised $840.79. On Walk Day (Saturday, May 12) we had 25 team members show up to walk.

Thanks to Patty Ingram for taking the Spring Time Delights sales and to everyone who sold items from the Spring Time Delights catalog. All proceeds given to KCCD from the Spring Time Delights sales went to the March of Dimes. Thanks to the Security Reception Officers and Sharon Ferguson for selling shoes and for all staff who bought shoes. All of the shoe money went to the March of Dimes. Thanks to LaJuana Yonts and Sherry Piper for taking donations on the yard and thanks to all staff who gave a donation. A special thank you to each team member for their money donations and for walking four miles on the Rails to Trails at Powderly, Park. Also, thanks to Richard Peterson who helped set up food tables on Walk Day.

In addition, we tied with a local company for the best team t-shirt award.
