On March 20, 2010 Macland is hosting a 5K Walk/Run called "Ashley's Run", named for Ashley Collis. Proceeds will go to fund a girl's "open" scholarship for Truett McConnell College. The event starts and finishes at Macland Baptist Church.
Forty volunteers are needed to work the event. Volunteers do not have to be a member of Macland, but members participating would be greatly appreciated. Volunteers would need to be at the church between 6:30-7:00 a.m. on March 20.

Ashley's parents, Keith and Melissa,
have this message to pass on:
"We want to honor Ashley's dream
of finishing college and becoming a
teacher so she could help others.
She could not finish her dream,
but through her, others can realize
theirs."
