Goalie training for Wil

Kristen spearheaded a toys for tots fundraising competition at her high school. Her team raised $4,000...yes four thousand dollars from high school students! She even had the competition donating to her fund (who can resist a peppy cheerleader begging for money every day at lunch!) her principal had nothing but lavish praise for our girl! All the class presidents got to go to Toys r us and spend the money! Then the principal bought them lunch! WTG Kristen!
