Posted

Kashs Crew, in memory of Steve Kash Webb (Sept. 13-15, 2018), leads the way May 4 - May the Fourth Be With You, get it? - as walkers participate in the 2019 March of Dimes, Laurens County, Walk for Babies. On walk day, top fund-raisers were Justin Benfield and Kayla Dickson, top family is Kashs Krew, and top non-family teams are Prisma-Laurens County Memorial Hospital and Milliken & Company Gilliland. For the local campaign, signature sponsors are Walmart and Prisma-Laurens County Health System; and platinum Carolina Concerte and PRTC. The Laurens County goal is $65,000 and fund-raising continues through May 31, when top contributors will be honored at an Upstate gala. This year's walk is staged at Collyar Park, behind Laurens Middle School, and through Laurens neighborhoods (3 miles). - Photos by Vic MacDonald
