Spring Has Sprung!

 

Fashion Show Model 2011
Model Charlotte Kenney shares a laugh with a Fashion Show guest.

On Wednesday, April 6, more than 300 people gathered for fun, food and fashions at the VNA's annual Spring Blooms! Fashion Show and Luncheon. With the support of Northfield Savings Bank and all of our other generous sponsors, and a special thanks to all of our guests, more than $24,000 was raised to directly benefit the Janet S. Munt Family Room, VNA's Parent-Child Center.

 

  
A special thanks to our models: Tiffany Bluemle, Laura Cheney, Rosemary Dale, Melissa Dever, Priscilla Dube, David Finney, Danielle Hartwick, Church Hindes, Charlotte Kenney, Dick MacKenzie, Isela Marin-O'Brien, Mark Pitcher, MD, Kelli Shonter, Coach Hajj Turner and Sabine Zerarka.

On Your Mark, Get Set, Run!

 

Fun Run LogoJoin us on Saturday, May 7, for this year's Vermont Respite House 5K Fun Run/Jiggety Jog. The annual event which raises money for Vermont's only Medicare-certified hospice residence will be held at the Allen Brook School in Williston. Registration starts at 8 am with the run starting at 9 am and the Jog beginning five minutes after.

This year marks the 20th anniversary of Vermont Respite House and we're going to celebrate that at this year's Fun Run. Champ will be there as well as the GymKids Academy cheerleaders, Mike and his Big Blue Trunk obstacle course and more.

This year, we are also offering a matching gift challenge. A dedicated group of Vermont Respite House friends have agreed to match, dollar for dollar, every donation made for the Fun Run & Jiggety Jog.

And in honor of the 20th anniversary, we are hoping to get 20 Jiggety Jog Club teams! Any individual or team that raises $1,000 or more is a Jiggety Jog Club team member. Won't you be one of our 20 teams?
