Diamond Kids 2010

Another year, another successful Diamond Kid event. 

I began volunteering with DK in 2009 when my nephew Ethan was chosen as the Diamond Kid Angel for that year.  All proceeds collected for charity went to the Ronald McDonald House Las Vegas in his name.  This year they brought me back as the charity director.  Our 2010 DK Angel was Three Square, a local food bank here in town.  It's pretty simple how it works...All athletes are to bring $2 or 2 wish list items as a "parking fee" and all monies and food collected are donated.  I can't begin to tell you how wonderful our Diamond Kids are or their parents.  Both 2009 and 2010 proved very successful.  It makes me proud to work with great people in a great community for a great cause.  I didn't get as many pics as I would have liked.  Here are just a few.


It  was over 100* out there that morning.
So here we are relaxing with a snow cone after...
