Jackie Joyner Kersee
was the keynote speaker at the Win for KC Luncheon last Thursday. Win for
KC honors female state champions each year at their annual fundraiser.
After Joyner Kersee spoke she took pictures with girls in attendance and our 4x200
State Championship team of Irea Brown, Amber Henderson, Sydnee Mitchell,
and (alternate)Timolin Dooley.
“As we chatted with her, we told her that
Angie Annulus (former Bulldog state record-holder and State Champion) was attending
Jackie Joyner Kersee's alma mater of UCLA. She thought that was really
cool, and said that she would definitely look her up next time she was at a
practice,” said Dana Bedwell, GHS Track and Field Coach.
The luncheon was held at the Sheridan Hotel downtown. Our district has been able to attend the last three years.
