Springfield runs/walks/builds for a great cause

The good work of Sirdeaner Walker in her efforts to bring greater awareness to dangers of bullying was not lost on the many, many supporters who showed up in droves on Saturday morning to participate in The Carl J. Walker-Hoover Foundation’s
2nd Annual Anti-Bullying Back-to-School Road Race/Walk.

A spirit of positivity and purpose permeated the air that morning with everyone unified in their commitment to stand against bullying.

It was an honor to serve as a co-chairman of this inspiring event. It was a busy week for so many of the volunteers involved with the “Extreme Makeover” project, which has benefited the Walker family with a brand new house. And the Road Race on Saturday was a perfect build-up to the culminating “Move that Bus” event on Sunday!

Springfield, once again, displayed its one-of-a-kind sense of community and caring to a deserving family and cause.
