ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Left campus Saturday, June 4 with Jeremy, Lenny, Tyler, Derrick, Reggie and Mr. Blacke. Walked from Harrisonburg to the Harley Davidson rally in Waynesboro. Had a great day at the rally - the boys loved it! Later Doug and Peg Rohr treated us to CC Pizza and Cline's Ice Cream. Lenny and Derrick were both good walkers today and I enjoyed the company of the 4 boys. Church on Sunday was with both Trinity Episcopal Church, Staunton and Emmanuel Episcopal Church, Staunton and boys headed back to campus.
DONNIE’S JOURNAL
Monday morning - June 6 - I am headed toward Danville, trying to make up a few miles on my journey later this week. Talked to Brian on Spirit FM and the Hardee's manager stopped me on the road to make sure I had drink and food. That was nice! WDBJ -7 News followed me for 1 1/2 hours and filmed my stop at a convenience store. 10 or 12 members of Christ Episcopal Church, Martinsville joined me as I walked into Martinsville and hosted a reception at the church at 2. The members presented a mock check of a mile of pennies to help sponsor the walk. Later in the evening, John and Loretta hosted a dinner party - thank you! Nice to see Pat Sutton and many friends of Boys' Home. I am to be up bright and early on Tuesday to meet the WDBJ -7 crew at the Courthouse at 5:30 a.m.
On Tuesday morning appeared on the Mornin' Show as a remote interview with Steve Pardon. Met Clyde Hooker, Jr. and Jack Cooper for lunch. Am off to Rocky Mount.
