Making Strides for Breast Cancer Walk raised $3,342

One of the highlights of the fall events was the "Making Strides for Breast Cancer" walk on October 14th in North Conway.  The members of our club came out in force to support this worthy cause.  We had 100% participation with 17 of our members participating in the three mile walk on a cloudy and dismal Saturday morning.  Many of us gathered at the Masonic Lodge Breakfast to benefit Jen's Friends before the walk and which raised $1,600 for Jen's Friends.  We had one member who was on the organizing committee for the walk, planning for months in advance to ensure a safe and enjoyable event.  Another two members assisted with the registration process and we had a total of 29 members who provided a monetary donation.  Our group was able to raise a total of $3,342.00 which far exceeded our donations from previous years.  Our club members are capable of anything they put their minds to!
