Help the Jacket Backers fight MS during the Playoffs!

s    TThe Jacket Backers have sponsored the MS Walk team “Playoffs Baby” and donated $100.00 towards their efforts this Saturday – Melinda Ward and her brother Christopher have been club members for awhile and Melinda has been looking for people to walk or donate for the cause.  Several of the officers have personally known Christopher for a few years and know of his struggles with multiple sclerosis that he has done his best to quietly keep moving forward with.  As both she and Chris are ardent hockey fans, we thought this support was appropriate and thought we would ask members if they were interested in helping support the cause to donate additional funds directly.

 
If you would like to read more about the walk, or are interested in joining the fight or making a donation please follow this link or see the whole URL below for an explanation and a photo of Melinda and Christopher.  Thanks for your support to help the Jacket Backers fight MS during the playoffs.

The Jacket Backers made the front page of the Dispatch today.  Thank you to everyone that spoke to Steve Wartenberg to help with the article.  Thank you to Jeff and Anne for being so organized.  Thank you to Andy for being the sleepless Blue Haired Guy.  I guess I will have to deal with being low key.

Also if you missed it, many of the people on the front page last Thursday are members as well even if the paper didn't note they were Jacket Backers.  Linda, in the foreground and caption, is a member along with Nancy, Jessica, Amber and the side of Julie's head.
