Maryanne Miller, for his part in making the Step Forward Cure for Tuberculosis Walkathon a success. The event, held in Lagoon Valley in Vacaville on Sept. 20, 2008, was a fundraiser to find a cure for tuberculosis, and raised over $50,000 with over 100 local businesses participating. Sergeant Rickling volunteered to monitor the safety of the 200 runners and 150 walkers during the day. “I think this was a great experience, being part of an event where people were taking their Saturday to do something good for others,” he said.
