The Big E 9-29










 
The Big E on September 29th was a salute to the Special Olympics. During the parade line up I was able to meet with a few of their participants. The weather was gorgeous as I was escorted in a blue Cadillac, thank you to Joe for the hospitality in driving me. I wrapped the night up with front row seats at The Beach Boys concert and was able to chat a little bit with Mike Love.

The Big E 9-28





 
I participated in the parade at the Big E on September 28th. I was able to ride in a corvette as we drove through the fairgrounds. Thank you so much to Steve and Barbara for accommodating for me. The Big E had record attendance for the year but this particular Saturday brought in 160,872 visitors. I am thrilled that I was able to be apart of the record breaker.

South Shore Alzheimer's Walk





 
 
September 21st I was able to volunteer my time at the Alzheimer's Walk on the Plymouth waterfront. I met the other amazing volunteers and helped organize the shirts and get things set up for registration. After our orientation I hit the grounds as a greeter and helped welcome and direct participants.
 

Massachusett's Day











 
I had a wonderful day at The Big E for Massachusetts Day on September 19th. I was able to talk with the vendors on the mock state house green, be interviewed by Bruce on the radio, was able to watch the circus in boxed seats and meet the camels behind the scenes, and ride in the parade in an antique fire engine. Thank you Whately for sharing your ride with me!

Marshfield Fair 8/24








Once last time at the fair on August 24th brought forth more trophies and larger audiences. Each night I was able to address the growing crowd in the grandstands makes my mission to deliver awareness of cervical cancer that much more important. I was able to speak to people through out the fair and had visitors express how important my goals are for them and they also shared with me ways that they plan to help for their own reasons. It was very motivational to hear how many people take time out of their lives to help out causes they believe in as well.

Marshfield Fair 8/22





 
August 22nd I enjoyed another night at the Marshfield Fair helping out with the Demolition Derby's. One of my favorite parts of each night was when I was able to speak with the crowd though the PA system and express my thanks for their support and touch base on my platform of cervical cancer awareness. 

Marshfield Fair 8/19





 
August 19th I traveled back to the Marshfield Fair was I was able to hand out trophies to the winners of the Figure 8 Demolition Derby. While at the fair I was able to speak to the crowd and fairgoers. The Marshfield Fair Demolition Derby has played such a important role in starting my husband and my relationship. It was great to be able to participate in a different way this year.
