The Pink Polka Dots is receiving a Golden Tennis Shoe Award this year!
Senator Patty Murray is holding the 14th Annual Golden Tennis Shoe Awards soon. For those of you wondering what that is: in the 80's, a preschool program that Patty Murray taught was being threatened by budget cuts. She set out to stop this from happening, and the state legislator told her that she couldn't make a difference because she was "just a mom in tennis shoes." In spite of what they said, Murray stopped the budget cuts. For the last 14 years, Senator Murray has recognized 2-4 people/groups every year that do extraordinary things for others.
Congratulations, Pink Polka Dots members!
