Fun Run fundraising is looking GOOD! We've nearly met last year's amount in corporate sponsorships and directory advertisers - and we've still got two weeks to go! This will surely be our best year yet and our team is so very excited and GRATEFUL! We are thrilled to have so many familiar businesses on board and are loving the new faces in the crowd, too. Here's a list of who's committed so far. Be sure we show our gratitude to these generous companies by using them when needs arise - show your love to those who've shown love to our awesome kids with their kind donations.

Today our schools celebrate the service of the men and women who have served our country. Happy Veterans' Day!
