Happy New Year!

It is the time of year to make our resolutions and to decide how to better our lives. As we are testing will power and perseverance in our own lives, why not, in one more simple act, make someone else’s better.

THE EYEGLASS PROJECT is well underway and we’ve experienced an amazing outpouring of generosity from the community. We have accumulated about 700 pairs of glasses between drop locations in Hunter Vision, the RDV Sportsplex, and Northland Church. 

As we continue on this venture, we are adding some drop locations through Track Shack. If you are a runner as I am not, you can drop off any eyeglass donations at packet pick-up for all Track Shack races. As Hunter Vision proudly sponsors Track Shack, we will also have a Hunter Vision booth at all Track Shack races. If you are running or cheering or just staring in amazement that people can run so far and fast without being chased by a tiger (That’s me. I do that. While eating a churro.), bring your used eyeglasses and drop them off at our booth.

700 pairs donated and more to come! Isn’t this fun?
