Last winter, Katy’s Courage raised $13,503.80 at the Second Annual Skate-a-thon. Katy’s favorite color pink adorned Buckskill Winter Club with ribbons, streamers and Katybug logos everywhere and on everything down to the tickets. There were 75 pink flags flying throughout the club grounds, pink helium balloons, a big pink heart and a Katybug logo painted on the ice. It was a beautiful day full of joy, celebrating the life of a lovely little girl. Don’t miss this fun event this year!
