Organiser's description

Dave's Jingle Dash is set for December 2 in Calvert City Memorial Park!

Dave Chumbler is a Calvert City. He is 65 years old and is a local celebrity and he is raising money to buy Christmas presents for the Marshall County Family Resource Center.

With your funds last year, Dave and members of the Marshall County Exceptional Center purchased Christmas presents for many children in our area last year! He has a goal of $3000 and we know he can meet it this year!

After the event, Dave will take the funds earned and go Christmas shopping with the Family Resource Center crew! Dave won't be shopping alone though - The Marshall County Exceptional Students will be joining him to shop till they drop!
