Throwing the first ball was Judy Miley. The winning team members (by one point) are Sam Stiffler, John Fischer, Heather Foltz, Mitzi Thompson and Sandy Ackerman. A total of $3,072.50 was raised by the event. Top fund raisers were Tara Anderson, ($280) and Ed Welch ($273).
A tote bag donated by the Susan G. Komen Columbus Affiliate, and a bottle of Tequila Rose (one of her favorite drinks) were given away in memory of Sherry Crawford, one of the original organizers of this event, who passed away recently. It was won by Andy Cole.
Also, a tie-knot blanket made and donated by Brenda Mathews, also in memory of Sherry, was won by Mitzi Thompson.
