This Saturday, May 26, I will be participating in the Dallas Fun Run for Dandy Walker. We are running (for me, thats fast-walking!) to raise awareness and support for the Dandy Walker Alliance.
The Dallas Fun Run for Dandy-Walker is a fundraiser to raise awareness and benefit the non-profit Dandy-Walker Alliance 501(c)(3). Walkers, runners, strollers, spectators and more; everyone is welcome to join us at the Fun Run! We will be holding a 5K & Jamboree on Saturday, May 26th, 2012 from 7 am to 12 pm at Bachman Lake Trail. Come join us for a morning of fun filled with the 5k, Johnny Rockit as Elvis, food, awards, raffle, games, facepainting, balloon animals, vendor shopping, inspiring people and more!
In honor of all those who have Dandy-Walker Syndrome and those that have lost their lives due to Dandy-Walker, we are dedicated in helping the Dandy Walker Alliance raise awareness for this syndrome, provide general information, educational materials and support to anyone affected by or interested in Dandy-Walker Syndrome, support legislation that will help expedite our goals, and raise money to support research efforts to find causes, better treatment options and a cure for Dandy-Walker.
