Shoes For Students

Thank you to the Shoes for Students supporters and volunteers who came out on Saturday for the Texas Hold'em Poker Tournament. It was a fun day of fundraising.

Congratulations to Mark Williams who came in first place, Toni Honn who earned second place and Terry Imano who took third place. Prizes were donated by CB Hood Diamond Company, Costco, Straw Hat Pizza, friends of Shoes for Students and The Hitching Post.

Shoes for Students appreciates Toyota of Santa Maria which invited us to use the incredible facility upstairs at the dealership to hold our event. We also appreciate the student volunteers from Orcutt Academy's new Interact Club who helped make the event run smoothly.

A big thank you to Chick-fil-A for donating lunch for the players and volunteers.
