Greetings!
THANK YOU ALL!!
A RECORD DAY FOR GOCA!!
What a day and what an incredible energy! We had spectacular weather (a little warm by 11) a record number of participants and hit a RECORD level of fundraising for GOCA!!
And the Results are in! (for September anyway)
TOP FUNDRAISING TEAM: Team Nancy
TOTAL WALKERS: 567
TOTAL $ RAISED: $130,000**
*estimated with expected matching gifts and donations received from the sales of our GOCA partners
A mere Thank You does not seem to come close in expressing GOCA's gratitude and appreciation for all the hard work and effort of all our walkers. These numbers are about YOU and a true testament to you and your families and friends.
But thanks our Sponsors:
FUZE, Northside Hospital, Sembler, and Kroger.
To ALL who helped set up on Friday, were there early to get registration and the route ready on Saturday and for those who created the memorial.
To Big D's BBQ for the tasty sandwiches
To Central Ambulance - our EMS who donates their time every year.
The folks who handcrafted our Walk Awards this year- who knew! Truly a gift in their own right and very much deserved!
Walk Photos are up and available to order! Click the link below, and once there, click on GOCA Walk 2008
Walk Awards for those who hit the fundraising levels will be mailed out in the next couple of weeks!
I can't wait to do it all again BIGGER AND BETTER next September!
But in the mean time, we have more to do in mving forward our mission of Awareness.Knowledge.Action. We have only scratched the surface!
We will keep you posted on any walk updates and future events! And if you are looking to get more involved in GOCA, please let us know!
