In addition to raising $500 through ticket sales, an additional $251 was donated by participants in the pursuit to win a pottery platter (see below) donated by a TPer who is a potter and works in the JBMH Mental Health department.

Physical movement impacts each of our lives in a positive way. It adds light to a day, it changes a moment in time and because of this, we realize how integral it is to our mental health and daily balance. Tread Powerfully is about strengthening the body in order to strengthen our spirits and minds and we are grateful to the members, friends and family members who came out to support this pursuit in our community.
