The Bill Wright Scholarship Fund held a “Kickathon” on Saturday, May 6th. The event was designed to raise money for the fund, which relies on private donations to function. This endeavor was the first of it’s kind in several years, and was a big success in boosting the funding for that charitable effort.
The BWSF was established to provide financial assistance to qualifying youth students. It’s purpose is to provide a way for disadvantaged youth students to learn important life skills through the martial arts like focus, self-control, respect, confidence and perseverance.
This time around, about a dozen kickers and separate contributors had raised nearly $1,600 at the time of this report. Top kickers and fundraisers will receive small gifts, but the real reward for the participants is simply helping those who need it.
The highest kickers in four age categories (based on those who participated) were awarded gift certificates from ZenQuest. Additionally, the individual who raised the most funds was awarded a gift card provided by the BWSF committee to Five Below. Congratulations to the following (and thank you for your efforts and support!):
Highest Fundraiser: Thane Adams
Adults (382 kicks): Matt Moreau
Cobras (318 kicks): Tyler Woodbury
Dragons (280 kicks): Thane Adams
Tigers (239 kicks): Terryn Loehr
Special thanks to everyone who participated and made this effort happen. Please remember that additional contributions are always welcome and appreciated!
