Pediatric Interim Care Center, The Newborn Nursery, (PICC) is a one-of-a-kind, model program that provides specialized, 24-hour care for drug-exposed and medically fragile newborns. PICC brings babies safely through withdrawal from drugs, including heroin, cocaine, methamphetamines, methadone, and prescription drugs. The pioneering program also facilitates visitation for families, provides caregiver training, follows the babies after they leave, and offers a range of community outreach and education services. PICC is in Kent, Washington, 20 miles southeast of Seattle and is the only 24-hour care center serving drug-exposed infants throughout Washington State.

The 25th Annual
Lawman 1000 Charity Ride

The Lawman 1000 motorcycle charity ride has been supporting non-profit groups across Washington State for the last 25 years and supporting PICC for the last eight. On June 28th, they headed out for their last ride as a group. Their destination: the Chinook Winds Casino in Lincoln City, Oregon. There were over 560 riders that rode the nearly 1000 mile round trip run over two days.  We have had the privilege to have been associated with this group of law enforcement and fire fighters and were very honored to be a part of this special event.

Special thanks to:
-The Lawman 1000 Board

-Riders who have supported PICC and raised over $215,000 over the past 8 years

-Donors of raffle prizes and auction items

-The many volunteers who helped with the event

Please check back. We will post the results of this year's ride and list the names of the raffle and auction winners!

  PICC’s Annual Luncheon Raises $77,000
 

THANK YOU to the 450 guests who helped raise $77,000 at PICC’s Building the Future luncheon Friday, June 16, at the Southcenter DoubleTree.  KIRO 7 Eyewitness News Anchor Margo Myers was master of ceremonies for the annual event hosted by PICC’s Board of Directors.

Washington State Senator Margarita Prentice was honored at the event for her “tireless dedication to the children of Washington State.”  Sen. Prentice’s support was critical to the founding of PICC and to the program’s continued funding by the state legislature. 

The event included entertainment by the Kentridge High School Choraliers, a drawing for a Holland America Cruise, and a live auction for Alaska Airlines tickets led by Auctioneer Larry Snyder.

Thanks to our generous luncheon sponsors, all money donated at the luncheon will go directly to the care of drug-exposed newborns at PICC.  Title Sponsors of the luncheon were Dr. and Mrs. Peyton Gaunt; Tecton Corporation, a property management company; and Hooked on Hydronics, Inc.  Table sponsors were Duncan & Haley Ltd., Summit Capital, Lisa Talbott and Kriss Edwards, Robert Odegard DDS, Mutual of Enumclaw Insurance, and PEMCO Financial Services. 

Next year’s luncheon is set for Friday, May 8, 2009, at the Southcenter DoubleTree.  We are already looking for sponsors, table captains, and enthusiastic guests.  Click here for more information.
