| My Walking Team "Remember My Photo" 2015 |
 |
| "MY LADY CREW" |
This year’s walk seemed to come sooner than last year, but
that could because my schedule with work, photography, volunteer work and
family work have been keeping me
busy this year.
My day started early. I arrived at 6am. This year I am happy
to say I got an official “Committee Member” shirt that I had the honor of
wearing all day. So I was not to mad at myself for noting getting custom
t-shirts made for my walk team “Remember My Photo” This year’s team mates that
joined me were: Kathy (friend from work), her friend Kim, Jamie (my realtor), my
husband & son, and William, his daughter and grandson (clients of mine from
my photography business.) My team raised well over $235.00 with a couple of
awesome outside donations.

I began my day at the registration area until the ceremony.
I got to help many people come in and get registered for the walk, collect
extra donations, share with them the day’s events and most importantly thank
them for coming and for raising money for a disease that still had no cure. Similar to last year’s ceremony, there were
honorees on stage for each colored flower. I did not meet these individuals
this year, but heard from my team about their amazing stories.

I was hopeful during this walk to not become so emotional in
regards to losing my Grandma . I am proud to say I walked this year with my
head held high. I was truly touched on how well the walk came together. The
goal for the walk this year was to raise $185,000.00. After the walk the total
that was raised was $171,731.22. But the fundraising does not stop there. I
imagine we will hit our goal on or before the end of 2015. This year we had 107
teams and 1,021 walkers. I would say so far we are doing a stellar job as a
team effort to help end Alzheimer’s. Please join me next year as I walk to find a
cure for Alzheimer’s.
