Saturday night was a fun-filled night of laughter and fellowship at the Crockett County Country Club for the annual appreciation party for the "St. Jude Buck Creek Trail Ride". Each year, volunteers get together in the month of September to create an event to raise money for St. Jude Children's Hospital in Memphis, TN.
Terry Weaver graciously allows this event to be held on his property, Weaver Farms, in Crockett County. I volunteered my services this past September, but unfortunately did not have the pleasure of meeting Terry, until Saturday night. I spent some time talking with him and expressed my appreciation for his kindness in allowing the multitude of people to congregate on his property. He informed me that this land has been in his family for many years. I believe that his ancestors would be very happy that this property is being used for such a wonderful charitable event.
I don't know how many attended the party Saturday night, but I can tell you that it sure seemed like everyone enjoyed themselves. There was food, dancing, "exciting" games, and plenty of smiles and laughter.
I am looking forward to the trail ride this September and the chance to help make a difference in a child's life.
I hope you can join me.
