Team Mathias Walk-A-Thon

On Sunday, a walk-a-thon was held to raise continued awareness of childhood cancer and above-all support Mathias in his personal fight. The pictures speak for themselves. This community is fighting for Team Mathias. It was a moving event--SO many people showed up, from infants to teenagers, adults to grandparents; we walked for Mathias. 

The neighbor streets and driveways were littered with Team Mathias emblems.

There were motivational signs standing along with half-mile loop.

People set up water stations in their front yards to quench the thirsty of sweaty walkers.

Mailboxes were strung with gold balloons.

There was a quilt signed by all the walkers for Team Mathias.

The neighbor club house was filled with festivity--a DJ, food, games, a silent auction, and decorations galore.

Ike Hilliard even joined in on the fun!

And the late September heat stopped no one, hundreds of people walked lap after lap with smiles on their faces.

To make this day possible, dozens volunteered. I'm grateful for today. We love Team Mathias.
