Thank you to everyone who participated this year! Don’t forget, you can still fundraise and meet your goal (if you haven’t already) until November 30, 2010. We still have yet to meet our fundraising goal, so ask your family and friends to help YOU make an IMPACT!

Also, a huge thanks goes to our sponsors, volunteers, UCF Athletics and UCF Police. This event couldn’t have happened without all of YOU!
