ADA's Step Out Walk to Stop Diabetes 2011

This year's Walk For Diabetes was indeed a success! The Camp Needlepoint team - the team I am a part of, won again this year for the most walker participants as well as the most money raised by a team! That was amazing. It was awesome to see the turnout this year - it seemed like a lot more than last year. I think for sure the weather played a huge part this year as it was cold in the morning at 6:15am setup, but then warmed up to be a pretty nice day outside!

Here are some pictures from the big day:

My mom, dad and me just before the walk started

My aunt and cousin also came for the day and helped raise an additional $170 for our team!
 
And what would a Halloween Walk be without the Walk Committee leader dressed up as Cat In The Hat?!

Winners! Team Camp Needlepoint (some of us)

 
Bug Juice 1/2 gallon "challenge"

 
Lauren is the winner! Sorry boys!

High fives all around
 
Can't wait to start planning for the walk event next year. Next up: The Annual Diabetes Gala.
