Relay for Life

Last night Dave and I walked our 2 hour leg for Team St. John at the Relay for Life in Costa Mesa. I ended up raising over $1,000 (I ranked #9 of all 517 participants for fund raising) for the American Cancer Society and the St. John team raised over $10,000!!! In all the event raised over $61,000!!!! Thank you so much to all who made donations!!!!

We walked from 9pm to 11pm and got to enjoy the Luminary lighting ceremony.
In all there where 400 bags that lined the track in memory of or in support of those who have battled or are battleing cancer. Me with the bag I made for my late Grandma June
Me with the bag I made for a friend recently lost to cancer
