CHARITY WALK OCT. 28 TO RAISE FUNDS FOR KENNY ROGERS CENTER

SIKESTON -- Sponsors and walkers are still being sought for the Kenny Rogers Cerebral Palsy Center's 22nd annual Charity Walk, Oct. 28.

The walk starts at 10 a.m. at the Sikeston Kmart store and ends at the Sikeston Eagles Lodge, where lunch will be served to participants.

Everyone who raises at least $25 in pledges will get an official Kenny Rogers Center T-shirt. In addition, the person from each county who brings in the most money will get a $200 award, and a $100 savings bond will go to the second-place winner.

Sponsor sheets are available at local churches, businesses and schools, or by calling 472-0397. All funds raised will stay in the community.
