Mary's Walk 2013

The 15th annual Mary's Walk was held on St. Patrick's Day in Saco.  This event is held each year in honor of Mary Kerry, who battled cancer and passed away in 1998.  This year's event raised nearly $300,000 and all of it goes directly to the Maine Cancer Foundation.
The Mrs. Maine-America Organization put together a team who walked in the event.  The team included staff, former Mrs. Maine's, our current Mrs. Maine, and 2013 contestants.  The organization has been touched by cancer over the years and walked in honor of those currently battling cancer, survivors, and those we've lost.

Christie Cantara (Contestant Coordinator), Debra Pronovost (State Director/Mrs. ME
America '05), and Tina Hendricks (Mrs. ME America '11)
