Special Needs Awareness Day • Throughout the day I face painted, helped out with the bounce house by making sure the children were jumping safely, and helped run the various games set up. • Every child there was so happy and thankful for our help.

Relay For Life • Relay for Life is the American Cancer Society’s signature activity. Teams of people camp out at a local high school, park, or fairground and take turns walking or running around a track or path. Relays are an overnight event, up to 24 hours in length. • I participated by walking our track with friends and raising money for our team. http://www.relayforlife.org/relay/whatisrelay
