<span style="color: #ffe599;">Hey </span><a href="http://www.walkforahealthycommunity.org/whc3/pgh/index.shtml" target="_blank">Highmark Walk for a Healthy Community</a><span style="color: #ffe599;"> Walkers, here’s an update on team totals! </span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #ffe599;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #ffe599;">We have a new, first-time team leading the way with a phenomenal $1,605.00!! Which newbies have raised such an impressive amount you ask? It's the lovely ladies of </span><span style="color: #93c47d;"><b>RMU Delta Zeta</b></span><span style="color: #ffe599;">! You go, girls!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #ffe599;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #ffe599;">Steadily pacing themselves behind the Delta Zetas is </span><b><span style="color: #93c47d;">Team Kayla</span></b><span style="color: #ffe599;"> with $930.00. This long-time team is a force to be reckoned with, having a strong and loyal support system. Better keep an eye on them Delta Zetas!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #ffe599;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #ffe599;">In third place is</span><b> <span style="color: #93c47d;">Team Power Pros</span></b><span style="color: #ffe599;">, with $460.00. Board Member Dave Wessel leads this team, but will he be able to lead them to the title of Top Fundraising Team like he did last year?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #ffe599;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span style="color: #93c47d;">Team Schneck</span></b><span style="color: #ffe599;">, an ultra competitive fundraising team, is limping along in fourth place with $350.00. We ask Board President and Team Leader Mike Schneck, </span><i style="color: #ffe599;">what’s going on!?</i><span style="color: #ffe599;"> There’s still time for you to pull ahead! <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #ffe599;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #ffe599;">And in last place is </span><b><span style="color: #93c47d;">Team Leverett</span></b><span style="color: #ffe599;"> with $250.00. Though they may be behind now, we have faith that this virtual team will raise more funds before the day of the Walk. Keep it up, guys! <o:p></o:p></span></div>
