“Since 2002, the event has raised more than $250,000 for the five public schools in Pinecrest,” says Kim Haar, co-sponsorship and vendor chair with Becky Parker. “Our goal is to break all previous fundraising records and donate more money to our schools than ever before. This event is an incredible opportunity to support education for our children, as well as to get exposure for your business in front of more than 6,000 people.”
