We couldn’t do all that we do without the help and precious time of our wonderful volunteers. At the event, the Herrick family, Shawn, Raymond and Cole, took home the Volunteer of the Year award, while Ted Burgin won Shriner of the Year. Ada Lee Kane, who donated more than 80 bicycles to Kosair, was awarded the new Calling All Angels Award, and Park Community Federal Credit Union was named the Community Partner of the Year.

They started Cole’s Classic golf scramble in 2006 to give back to Kosair, which helped them with Cole’s early medical bills. The tournament consistently raises more than $40,000 annually for Kosair. The tournament has grown so much that it will now be known as the Kosair Classic and headed by a committee that includes the Herricks. It’s people like the Herrick family that allow Kosair to help others in need. The full story is available in the Spring Kite Tales newsletter at http://kosair.org/index.php/kitetales.
