Balloon Release at the 5k

The sun is beginning to peak out from behind the clouds, so it is time start training once again for the 5k! Today you should be walking for 30 minutes!

I also want to take a moment to tell you about one of the exciting things we will be doing at the event on April 10. CASA will be having a balloon release (don't worry all balloons used are biodegradable) to show the number of foster children currently served by a CASA Advocate with blue balloons and the number of foster children still awaiting someone to be their positive voice in red balloons. Check out these pictures from last year...


This is quite a moving moment as we all witness before us the many, many children still awaiting a CASA Advocate. We are very excited to announce that it is now easier than ever to complete the CASA Advocate training, because we are now able to offer an ONLINE SEGMENT of the training thanks to Lubbock Christian University! Our first training to include the ONLINE SEGMENT will begin next Monday, March 22. If you have ever thought you were interested in helping a child in need through becoming a CASA Advocate, this is your chance. If you are interested in this CASA training, which includes the online segment, please call Peggy at 763-2272.
