Here is our 2012 Goofy Team, 1/3 of the way there!

This sums it all up

I think this sums up why we're all here - we're here to honor all of the grieving families we've served and the memory of the loved ones they've lost.

Team Kicks Off Weekend with a Celebration of Acomplisment & Hope

Friday night, many of this year's team gathered together to officially kick-off this weekend with a team dinner. We celebrated the hard word & dedication of each team member in their fundraising & awareness work. The 5K team, who ran this morning, were congratulated on their race. Teammates from eight states, many meeting for the first time, shared their goals for this weekend as well as their memories of Comfort Zone Camp in action. We also acknowledged all the generous donors who help the team raise pledges.

Several teammates mentioned being stopped about and ask what CZC is and then how people related and appreciate it's mission!
