2014 Great Strides Commercial for our 5th Annual Wooster Walk



Here it is...our 2014 Great Strides Commercial for our 5th Annual Wooster Walk for a CURE for Cystic Fibrosis!!!! It will play on MCTV in Wooster starting in April until the day of the walk on May 4th. So, be on the lookout;)

BIG THANK YOU TO MY WONDERFUL HUSBAND FOR PUTTING THIS ALL TOGETHER ALL BY HIMSELF THIS YEAR, HE EVEN DID THE VOICE!! THANK YOU, HONEY!!!:)

Featured in the commercial are CFers...Lil' Chris, Harrison, Aden, Aubrey, and Sophia.

Harrison will be new to our walk this year...he's such a cutie:) It looks like we may have another new team this year too...McKenna's Maniacs. I haven't met them yet, but I look forward to meeting them at the walk:)

Our goal for the walk this year is a total of $22,000 raised and so far between all the teams, we are at $4,615. Not bad, but we got a long ways to go. So if you know of any businesses that would like to sponsor our walk, please let me know! We have different levels of sponsorship and we will advertise their business at our walk.

Also, our goal is to have 200 walkers and right now we are at 55, so please make sure you sign up today! It's easy to register, just click the team you want to join and then click "join our team" and answer a few questions and make a password. Quick and easy!! Usually I register most of my team for them, but with the new website this year, I found out that I can't. They have to register themselves, but luckily it's not hard and the best part is...whenever I share my team link, someone could donate towards ANY of my walkers!! That's pretty cool!! We can try to share the love:) Remember, if you raise $100 or more, you will get a free CF shirt at the walk:) All you have to do is ask 10 people to donate $10 or 5 people to donate $20!! Simple:)

Here is the link to all the teams, so all you have to do is click on the team you want to donate to or "Join" to walk or help raise money!! http://fightcf.cff.org/site/TR?pg=entry&fr_id=2280

I'll update more about all the fun things we are going to have at the walk soon:)

BIG THANK YOU TO ALL WHO HAVE DONATED OR SIGNED UP TO WALK SO FAR!!! WE ALL GREATLY APPRECIATE THE SUPPORT!!!!

Cough Update

Sorry it's been awhile, but I've been busy fundraising and organizing for our upcoming walk for CF on May 4th. This is our 5th annual walk!! I can't believe how time flies! Seems like yesterday I made the call to the CF Foundation to get a walk started here in our town since all the other walks are kinda far:)

I'll update you more on the walk later, but for now I'll fill you in on lil Chris...My last post was when he had that bad cough and we thought he was going to have to get an antibiotic for it...we'll, I'm happy to say that his cough went away on its own and I didn't even need to call the clinic!!! YEA!!!! I was so relieved!! He's has been doing great since!! Thank you all sooooo much for all your prayers!!! God definitely heard our prayers and answered them!!

Well, I gotta get back to fundraising... I'm in the process of writing a letter to the kids classes about joining us for our walk and raising money for A CURE 4 Lil' Chris;)

Keep checking back for some exciting news coming soon:)
