The team with the most steps was The Marvelous Moppettes and they won $100 in Perry Bucks (picture below). Also, the following people had at least 10,000 steps and won $15 chosen from Walmart, Braums, Pizza Hut, and Mr. Convenience $5 gift cards, each person chose three gift cards, Stephanie DeClerck, Milena Davis, Mary Smith, LaDonna Harbour, Dianne Sanders, and Derek Taylor. The next group of people could choose $10 worth in gift cards from the remaining $5 cards, Karen Yunker, Cristy Jones, Kay Woodall, Sharlette Napier, Roni Folsom, and Becki Moran.
