Making Strides Cancer Walk

We came, we saw, we...WALKED!  It was really fun.  What a great opportunity to hang out with colleagues outside of the regular day while making a difference. Participants included Ms. Reinhart and Lilianna, Ms. Q and Lexi, Ms. Claiborne, Ms. Bartz, Ms. Corsi, Mr. Weiss, Tara/John/Hailey Deeb, Ms. Atjian, Ms. Calderon, Ms. Olivas, and of course, Ms. Fraser and family.  A lot of funds were raised, and a few pounds worked off while meeting/seeing/dancing with some of Tucson's finest.  Pictures here.

Many of us have had friends or family devastated by this horrid disease.  My boyhood hero was Terry Fox.  He still is one of my heroes, actually.  His story of courage in the face of this tragic illness is worthy of more than just these simple words. He inspired many of us to help raise over $400 million in his name for a reason.  You are invited to watch man's determination at its fiercest (see video below).
