Organizers were Mindy Conn, Coach McDonald, Joe Dallas, Missy Bracher and Leslie Artigue.

Prizes were awarded to the top earners in the fundraiser.

At the elementary level, Rebecca Scali raised the most money, and won a new bike, donated by The Bike Shop of Key West.

The top middle-school earner, Mariel Wiley, won a Kindle Fire e-reader tablet. The teacher with the most participation, Kevin Walden, received a gift certificate to Kaya Island Eats.

The homeroom that raised the most money in middle school was Mrs. Ragusea's class.
