Relay for Life, Year 2!
Pinnacle Bank participated in Gilroy’s Relay for Life again this year. Jeff and I did a better job of raising money compared to last year — we raised $265.23. As a team, Pinnacle Bank raised $9,287.18.
We had planned to do luminaries again this year – Jeff bought 2 bags and brought them home for me to decorate — but I had no time!! We went to the Relay on today from 1-2pm and walked the track about 12 laps within that time. Not sure how long 1 lap is but we estimated its about the same as a regular lap around a normal track. While walking around I noticed a very familiar looking luminary. MY BAG FROM LAST YEAR! Haha. I decorated one in honor of my mom at last year’s event, and I guess they must save them and/or it never got out to be lit. I looked inside the bag, and the candle had been lit from last night’s luminary ceremony. So even though we didn’t get to do new ones this year, we still represented.
