Employees of Memorial Health System (MHS) recently wore blue jeans at work for another “Jeans Day” fundraiser. Employees who make a donation of at least $5 are allowed to wear blue jeans on the last Friday of the month. A total donation of $235 was presented to Tori Murphy, organizer of Derrik’s Ride. Derrik’s Ride is an event to help in the fight against childhood cancer, which features a poker run, bike show, cornhole tournament, dinner, auction, music, and more. This year’s event will be held September 14th. For more information, search “Derrik’s Ride” on Facebook or call 785-280-3178. The day was organized by the MHS Employer of Choice (EOC) committee.
