Welcome Back Goodwyn, Mills and Cawood!
Dumas Wesley Community Center welcomed back Goodwyn, Mills and Cawood (GMC), for United Way of Southwest Alabama's Annual Day of Caring. On May 3, 2019, GMC employees volunteered in the Senior Activities for Independent Living Program. The seniors enjoyed festive games, line dancing and bingo. GMC employees selected Dumas Wesley as their service site due to the
long-standing relationship that was formed in 2018 when GMC was paired with Dumas Wesley for United Way's Day of Caring. Since then, GMC has continued to support Dumas Wesley through volunteering and giving back to families at the Sybil Smith Family Village.
Mary G. Montgomery's Football Team Does it Again!
On Saturday, May 18, 2019, twenty-two teams competed for bragging rights to see who could pull a plane 12 feet in the fastest amount of time. Just how fast can a team pull a 130,000 pound Delta Airplane? For the second year in a row, Mary G. Montgomery's Football team was crowned Grand Champions with the fastest time of 7.34 seconds. The team also won the Community Division.

The event was sponsored by the Mobile Airport Authority, Airbus, City of Mobile and Fox10 and presented by Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Alabama’s Caring Foundation, the United Methodist Church-Mobile District, Cumulus Broadcasting and Lagniappe. Thank you to all the participants, donors, in-kind donors and volunteers for making the 4th Annual Plane Pull a success!

"I have loved working at Dumas Wesley and alongside some of the nicest people," said Morris. "Over the years, I have learned to appreciate the value of loving people.
