3rd Annual Walk From Obestiy Information
Hi all, and thank you to those who have replied to my other post asking for help on this.
Here's the scoop: The Walk From Obesity is a new event, only three years old now, that is meant to increase awareness of the disease of obesity, childhood obesity, strive to eliminate the negative stigma associated with obesity and elevate and empower obese individuals to take action that makes a difference in their lives and the lives of others. All proceeds go to help fund research and increase professional a public awareness of bariatric surgery and it's role in treating obesity.
It will be held this year at the Medical Mile, behind the Rivermarket on President Clinton Ave. September 20, at 9:00 a.m. It is only one mile, but you're welcome to make the loop as many times as you wish. This is the first year that Baptist has hosted the event, and because it is a new event Nationally, we want to help it grow as much as we can. Last year we had about 150 participants, and I'd love to see us DOUBLE that!!!!
Registration is $25 and includes a free tee shirt! You can register on line at:
walkfromobestiy.com, or by mail. I will have registration forms to pass out at the support group meeting, or you can PM me your address and I'll send you one.
I think with all the people here on this board, and all the people we know who can see how our lives have changed, we can have a great turn out this year.
Let's try to get carpools together from all the different parts of the state and have a grand time together afterwards!!!!
Hugs to all
Susan
