The One to Grow On Wrap-Up
We’ve been working diligently for months and months and on January 30th, the Wolfson Children's Hospital One to Grow On Ultra Marathon came to be. If you were not there, than let us be the first to tell you that it was a HUGE success! We raised more than $530,000!
The One to Grow On Ultra Marathon
Our six runners all finished their 55 mile goal in a timely matter. Finishing times ranged from 8 hours and 55 minutes to 11 hours and 5 minutes. Congratulations go out to Paul Wilson, Dr. Saswata Roy, Richard Nunn, Linda Quirk, Andy Woods, and Dr. Michael Marchigiano for their dedication to Wolfson's Childen Hospital and finishing the Ultra Marathon.
The Run 5 to Keep Kids Alive
With more than 800 participants in this 5 mile run, you could easily say it was a success. The first person to finish the race timed at just over 32 minutes and pushed a stroller throught the entire run! Thanks to everyone who participated!
The Amazing Birthday Celebration
After having Olympic Gold Medallist Shannon Miller present each of the 55 children their own individual medal, the party began! With an array of events it was a blast! Not only did Crystal Jones, one of our featured 55 children, play the saxaphone with her father, but the party included:
- Bounce Houses
- Face Painting
- Air Brush Tattoos
- Caricature Drawings
- The Lowes Building Workshop for Kids
- and Mad Science
