Preliminary rumored results!

I read a post on my CF Infants/Toddlers support group website that said the preliminary total $ raised at the Minneapolis CF walk was over $700,000! Again, it's a preliminary total and it's just a rumor so I don't know how accurate it is. The St. Paul walk is on the 17th so hopefully that will bring in just as much if not more money!

Great, great, great Strides

The annual CF Great Strides walk went off without a hitch on a gorgeous, sunny Sunday afternoon! We were so blessed to have 22 people walk with us! The final count of money isn't available yet, but I'm sure it was a big amount given the number of people at the walk. We're also thankful to Bakers Square, Land-O-Lakes, Frito Lay, and tons of other sponsors for the free breakfast, snacks, and lunch! Wow - I can't believe how many generous corporate sponsors were involved in this walk. Our team raised almost $3,000! Thank you to everyone who donated. Especially Trinity Lutheran church who donated the fellowship money and Sunday School offering for the month of March to Madeline's team. Starting out the walk with Grandma Barb, Grandpa Gordie, Kathryn, Eric and Daddy

The happy family with their CF Great Strides T-Shirts. Madi's is signed by all of our teammates.
The best team ever!
