Katie's Day a Huge Success
April, 13, 2013 turned out to be a perfect day for the second Annual Katie's Day. A perfect spring day brought out hundreds of Operation Katie supporters from all over. Patrons enjoyed an absolute beautifulday filled with great music, food, games, contests, and good old fashion fellowship. The success of Katie's day is something that should make everyone feel very proud to be a part of such a great community and project. People came as far as Tennessee to show support for Katie Bledsoe and family. At 11:00am supporters began arriving early to Katie's day to show support and by 2:00pm Fisher River Park was packed. Whether it was children, playing games or playing on the inflatable toys, listening to great music, people participating in the corn hole tournament, or people lining up at a shot to drop Sherriff Graham Atkinson into the freezing water of the dunking booth everyone had a great time. At the end of the day Operation Katie raised a grand total of $25,056 in support of Operation Katie. The team of Operation Katie and family of Katie Bledsoe would like to thank everyone for their support towards the completion of building Katie a brand new handicap accessible home.
