This event would not be possible without the dedication of time and effort by the employees at our office, who help execute the event from passing out t-shirts, cooking hamburgers and hotdogs, preparing sacks of food to pass out, hauling equipment, contacting vendors, and every other little detail that makes it a success.

 

We also could not do this event without our vendors and sponsors. We would like to recognize these individuals! They donated funds, supplies, backpacks, their time, and their encouragement to our event and all the students we served.
