The volunteer committee that puts this event together each year did a fabulous job, and brought their total of funds raised over the 37 years to almost $2.5 million. Special thanks to Ann Baker and her committee chairs, Meredith Flanaghan, Joe Tatone, Theresa Goodheart, Zoe Busher, Barb Manahan, Marilyn Malcolm, Mary Ann Koval, Gloria De Le Torre, Susie Higgins and Linda Sansom.
