WOW!!!
The 1st Annual Celebrate Joan 4K-ish Walk was a rip-roaring success!!!

Thanks to everyone who came out to Trexler Park on December 26, despite the iffy weather. We had almost 300 participants, plus many four-legged friends, kids in strollers and wagons, and even some members of the press. Some jogged, some walked, but everyone managed to have a great time as we raised over $3500 to benefit VISTA and Saint Catharine's. This event will be held on an annual basis, most likely the Saturday after Thanksgiving, so mark your calendars for next year!

Special thanks to the following people:

• Karen Dorney and Frank Krakowski - registrars par excellence!
• Liz and Will at CBS 3 - phenomenal coverage before and during the event
• Joe Malia - beverage containers
• Midge Coker - videojournalist
• Sally Trexler, Linda Jenkins, Susie Brooks, Karen & Hershel Dorney - bagels
• everyone who donated water
