Great Strides 2009

This past Saturday, we participated in our 13th Great Strides walk, a fundraiser for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. The event raised $75,000! Last year it raised $63,000 and the goal for this year was $68,000. We have such wonderful, supportive friends that join our team and/or donate to Team Mackenzie. Next year, I have a lot of ideas to raise more money leading up to the walk and I am definitely going to do Team Mackenzie t-shirts! Above: Alyssa, Mackenzie, Mason, Emily & Amelia.

Alyssa is on the WJHS yearbook committee and they are looking for pictures of WJHSers doing things in the community.
Ashley & Peyton enjoying some yummy barbeque provided by Red Oak - it was delicious!

After the walk Mackenzie went to Emily's and joined her at her church for their SummerZover celebration - here they are after a long day!
