Dear Editor:

I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to all who were involved.
Thank you to::

* Sacred Heart High School staff, especially Trent.
* Volunteers - Registration, games, Knights of Columbus #2031, blood pressure ladies, Audrey for selling raffle tickets.

* The many Yorkton businesses who generously donated towards the event with prizes for our raffles and monetary donations, the day of the walk those that supported the raffles-money will be donated to the Kidney Foundation of Saskatchewan and the Yorkton Dialysis Unit.
