Zobell con- fided she received a lot of support from family members and friends who helped out during that difficult time. Keith came home from the hospital May 28 and sure enough, on June 6, Family Day, Zobell was there with her children. Zobell admitted she was concerned a little about getting all the games organized this year after she accepted the responsibility. "The biggest frustration was worrying whether or not there would be enough people working the games," she said. "I really appreciate all the support from the volunteers who helped with the game booths and the squirrel cage. I couldn't have done it without them. "The main reason I like doing this and taking the extra time," she said, "is because of the satisfaction I get from seeing the joy of the kids." get-togeth- er v x1-;:- , , . J?
