Andy and Kathy Durrett say you never realize what the March of Dimes does, until you need them.  And they needed this group last year when their son Davis was born, three and a half months early.  Andy says Davis received medications funded by the March of Dimes and now he's a healthy 15 month old.  Something his parents believe wouldn't have been as likely without help from the non-profit organization.  


This weekend is the March of Dimes walk.  Registration is at 9 a.m. Saturday at the Loyola Athletic Complex.  The walk begins at 10.  For more information call 869-0400.
