We had another successful Volunteer Orientation last May. A wonderful group of health professionals attended and were ready to embarc with us on our journey.

Sister Mariana Koonce, RSM, MD, accepts a check for $2,749 from members of the Knoxville Academy of Medicine Alliance. The check was presented to Sister Mariana and the St. Mary’s Legacy Clinic for the clinic’s share of proceeds from the 14^th annual Doc Rock fundraiser, which was held Jan. 26 at the Concourse at the International near downtown Knoxville. Presenting Sister Mariana with the check are, from left, Kirstin Kropilak, Cynthia Gash, Nancy Sewell, and Robin Hutchins. The KAMA members with Sister Mariana attend the Cathedral of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus.

Doc Rock is a battle of the bands that features music groups with at least two members who are doctors. Each band represents a non-profit health care provider in the community. Those attending Doc Rock vote on their favorite band and non-profit organization.
