Last year we placed in the top 10 fund raisers and got a nifty scarf as a prize! I left it in the packaging unti this year when I presented it to team captain Kelsey!
We had a pretty good team line up. Crista and her family. But then Maddie had somehting else come up, that being a trip to Leavenworth with her new bf. Crista did not want to participate this year, but I suggested it would be nice to support Kelsey, and, its minutes from her house. She agreed and signed up the whole family! We basically met Konstantine last year at the walk. We were excited to have the whole crew back again. They no showed.
Mark Michael signed up to walk. We were planning on car pooling, but Kelsey and I decided to hang out before hand. Mark decided to not come due to cold and the change of plans. Kelsey recruited her mom, step dad and brother to join us this year and they were planning to do something together after the walk, so before the walk was time for Kelsey and I to spend together.
We were going to take grandma out to breakfast but she was not up to going out, so we brought her breakfast in.
We arrived around 12:30. One hour before the walk. It was around 30 degrees, with wind coming from the North, right off the water. It was COLD. We bundled up for a few minutes and headed to the registration. Dawn and family were already here. We registered and then watched the costume contests and other activities.
Before the official walk, we took a walk through downtown Port Orchard. We decided this was enough this year! Just too cold. Kelseys joints hurt her in the extreme cold.
It was great to have Dawn and family join us this year. Hope they join next year too.
Final tally was $500 raised, minus Dawns fanily registration, which has not shown up under our team yet. My boss agreed to match up to $250, but he threw in $275 instead!
