Two of our SPACE team members are involved in very different events that give back to our community and help others.  Let’s see what they’ve been up to:

Gary and his immediate family, as well as sisters, a niece, his mother-in-law, and some close friends participated in the Leelanau County Relay this past summer in memory of his father-in-law who passed away in 2009.  As Gary recounts the story, “I thought I would be superman and run several miles throughout the night.”  However, after a short while into it, he realized that his “legs did not want to participate in the fun.”  He said he had trouble walking for 2 days after the event.  Despite that, Gary’s family is planning on making this an annual event.  Stay tuned to see if Gary achieves superman status in 2010.

Donna volunteers with the Johnny Burke Children’s Foundation.  The foundation helps to pay medical bills for sick children, find appropriate medical attention for children in need, cover travel and lodging expenses when the kids have to visit specialists or have extensive testing done, and supply specialized equipment that insurance may not cover.  There are fundraising events held throughout the year that require the help of volunteers:  several golf outings, the Frankenmuth Clam and Lobster Fest, the Celebrity Rib challenge, and others.  Donna donates her time to these events which raise money for children in the tri-city area.

Thank you both for embracing SPACE’s core value of community service.  You ARE making a difference!
