2009 Walk/Run

On July 11, 2009, the morning of Dundee Daze many walkers and runners took a beautiful scenic jaunt on the trails of the Kettle Moraine forest.  They chose to run or walk on the trail from Long Lake or Mauthe Lake to the Dundee Sportsman's Club finish line, located on Hwy. 67 in Dundee, WI.  Participants appreciated their shirts and the many donated items given them: filled goody bags, bottled water, cheeses, and bananas.   They had a great time and helped make a real difference in the lives of the thousands of people affected by Parkinson Disease.  A big thank you to all of our sponsors who made that possible. Please check out the end of this page for 2009 sponsor list.
 
On Wednesday, August 19, 2009, a check in the amount of $8,000 was presented to Jay Blankenship, Executive Director of the Wisconsin Parkinson Association (WPA) and Dacy Reimer, WPA outreach coordinator.  The funds were raised at Kenny's Walk/Run for Parkinson Disease, through the efforts of the newly formed group, Kettle Moraine Cares consisting of individuals from Dundee, Long Lake, Kewaskum, West Bend and points between.  The presentation took place in Kewaskum in conjunction with a community dinner hosted by local Modern Woodmen agent, Jeff Jaeger.  Modern Woodmen was one of the major sponsors of the event raising the funds.

Some of the Walk/Run Directors, volunteers, and Kenny were there for the presentation.

Jay acknowledging check and informing attendees how the money will be put to use.

We had 50 volunteers who worked hard that day to make sure the event ran smoothly.  A total of approximately 200 participants (walkers or runners), came from various parts of the state i.e. Fond du Lac, Washington, Sheboygan, Dodge, Ozaukee, Milwaukee, Dane, Manitowoc Counties, and some came from out of state i.e. Illinois, Virginia, Minnesota, and Arizona.

It was a beautiful day with a lot of excitement in the air.  There were many donated raffle prizes and the thrilled winners were announced at noon. 

Participants appreciated their shirts and the many donated items given them: filled goody bags, bottled water, cheeses, and bananas.  A big thank you to all of our sponsors who made that possible.  Please check out the sponsor list by clicking on that tab.

The "honor board"  was filled with names of the people with Parkinson Disease, who the walkers/runners were honoring.
