| Ron Santo & Maggie Monson at the 2010 Walk Kick-Off Luncheon |
A special thank you to Cole & Lexi DeYoung who were the Youth Ambassadors at last week's event. Cole & Lexi, sisters who both have type 1, shared how much a cure would change their lives and how important it is for everyone involved to raise as much money as possible for a cure, for them and the millions of others living with diabetes. Thank you for inspiring us, Cole & Lexi!
Our Kick-Off Breakfast was held on August 17th at the Drury Lane in Oakbrook Terrace. Special thanks to Bailey Stearns, our youth ambassador, Kristin Kotara, Southwest Suburban Corporate Chair, our "walk experts" who sat on the panel and all those that attended for their support of JDRF!
2010 Lakefront Corporate Chair, Fred Walz, of Grant Thornton, will host the 2010 Lakefront Corporate Team Captain Power Lunch.
This is a great opportunity for our Corporate Team Captains to meet together, discuss ideas specifically designed for corporate teams, and finish the Walk strong! Lunch will be provided. Don’t miss this great opportunity!
