The Newest Yellow Jacket

We finally were able to meet Reese, the adorable soon to be 7 year old we adopted through the Friends of Jaclyn Foundation, on Friday afternoon. Our team was very excited to meet Reese afer hearing so much about her and posting on her Caring Bridge site. There was an instant connection between Reese and our team. She had a sparkle in her eyes when we talked about what number she would like to be. Reese chose 16 for her birthday. The team baked brownies (Reese's favorite) and made a sign welcoming Reese to the women's basketball family.

Friends of Jaclyn was created to improve the quality of life for children with pediatric brain tumors and their families. You can learn more by checking out their website: www.friendsofjaclyn.org.



Welcome Reese!
