I would like to take this opportunity to thank the volunteers that helped make the Wildcat Walk at Winterfest a huge success. Your efforts, whether you provided cakes and cupcakes or worked at the Walk, helped to create such a great time for so many children and adults. It takes a special person to want to give as freely as you have.
With sincere thanks,
Brenda Wenger
Wildcat Walk Coordinator
