The 1st Annual Run, Walk, Ride for Hunger

This was one of the more enjoyable, relaxing events we organized.  All our agencies were invited and our ED gave them the opportunity to raise pledges that would be applied to their accounts - which I thought was really great.  Motorcyclists came out for the "ride" and there were fun family oriented activities.  My kids loved the free inflatable waterslides after the Run, Walk, Ride.
It was held at the Queen's Marketplace in Waikoloa, which is about an hour and a half drive from Hilo.  Above and below, is Team Auna, who finished the 5K in record time.  I wish I could have walked or run it with my family, but I had to work the event.  I'm grateful for such a supportive husband and my kids. : )
Due to the fact that it was so far away and the event started so early, we stayed at The Shores in Waikoloa.  It was lovely!

 My children, of course, could not get enough of the gi-normous bath tub.  It was practically a miniature swimming pool.
 They also could not get enough of playing with Aunty Nozomi.  They love her!

We look forward to next year's!
