I could not be more excited to share photographs from last Sunday's event at Gillette Stadium. New England Yogathon 2017 touched my heart as I know it did many of yours. With over 900 yogis participating, this year's event raised $300,000 for Boston Children's Hospital and Off the Mat, Into the World. {And counting ... fundraising is open until May 30, 2017.}
I want to give a particular shout out to my team for raising $5,000 in its first year. I have been a part of this event for the last six years, photographing, fundraising and joining the committee, but this was my first year creating a team so I want to say a huge thanks to the 17 members who truly made my day, Ali, Lizzie, Jessica, Sue, Johanna, Caitlin, John, "Paul Plank" aka my friend Danny who joined as secret surprise, Melissa, Mary, Stephanie, Melissa R, Mike, Lisa, my sister Lexi and my husband Thomas.
Thank you to Sarah Gardner for founding this incredible organization, Melissa Lynott for executing so well, and the entire committee for all of their amazing support. And, thanks for letting me play my role. I love being a part of this amazing yoga community.
