Team Spirit Awards

 

Rising Star Award

 

Each year we are amazed by the new teams that join the Walk.  They bring new ideas and energy to this event and truly are the Rising Stars of JDRF.  This award recognizes one new family and one new corporate team who truly are “on the rise”.  This year’s Rising Star Award goes to Madeline’s Mob and TransCanada.

 

 

Golden Pom Pom Award

This award recognizes outstanding enthusiasm and energy for finding a cure; a team that has gone above and beyond the call of duty in the name of JDRF while having a lot of fun along the way.  These awards go to Matt’s Mates and Allegiance Bank.

 

Behind the Scenes Award

This award is presented to the family and corporate team who works tirelessly behind the scenes of the Walk to Cure Diabetes.  They quietly go about making major impacts on the Walk through fundraising and volunteering.  Tonight we present the Behind the Scenes Award to the The Atchison Family and LaMadeleine.

 

Heart and Sole Award

This award recognizes one family team and corporate team who put in 110% and who are not afraid of a little sweat. They embody the mission of JDRF and inspire all of us to join them in putting in that extra effort.  This category recognizes not only a family and corporate team, but also an individual who single put his heart and soul into the Walk to Cure Diabetes.  This year’s Heart and Sole Award goes to Bethany and Noah’s Believers and CenterPoint Energy.

 

The Most Festive Tent Award

The best decorated tents were judged by a secret panel of volunteers on walk day.  There were so many festive, creative and fun tents on walk day, but two really stood out.  The winners are Bailey’s Buddies and PwC.

 

The People’s Choice T-Shirt Contest

As always, we had some creative and fun submissions for this year’s contest.  The winners you selected via Facebook voting Team Calpine and Jackson’s Jedis.

 

2014 Golden Sneaker Recipients

JDRF would like to recognize all the individuals who raised $1,000 or more for this year’s Walk with the highly coveted Golden Sneaker award.  Thank you for your leadership in fundraising and for helping us turn type 1 into type NONE!
