A Special Edition 2012 Run/Walk Newsletter, with more details, will be posted soon to the Newsletter Page.

DOCF is grateful to all who participated in our 3rd Teal Ribbon 5K.  THANK YOU to all who volunteered, ran or walked, donated, collected pledges, created fundraising pages, and sponsored our event this year.  We also express our appreciation to Delmarva Broadcasting (WSTW) for broadcasting from our event this year.  Without all fo you, we could not fulfill our very important, life-saving mission!  We also appreciate your patience in the registration area as we got used to our new format with separate lines for runners and walkers...we promise this will go more smoothly next year!
