OKMOM 2010 Is History!

The first Oklahoma Mission of Mercy is over, the portable chairs are off to another state, the mobile dental unit is back in its home. More than $850,000 in free dental work was performed Friday and Saturday at the Tulsa Convention Center. 1,800 people benefitted from the two-day event.

I don't know about the rest of the volunteers, but my feet hurt! It was worth the 3:00a.m. wake up calls on Friday and Saturday and the very long days.

The 2011 OKMOM will be held in Oklahoma City. I think a lot was learned at this event and the next one will go even more smoothly. Kudos to everyone involved!
