The community and JDRF really go all out to ensure that Walkers have a great time!  Dozens of local sponsors contributed free food,
drinks, and services, and volunteers painted faces, ran booths, entertained the crowds, and even offered information and support.

If you have never gone out for a JDRF Walk, please consider doing so soon.  You not only will help fund the cause
for a cure, but will have a fabulous, fun time doing so.  

Although our family has been living with diabetes for years now, it still warms my heart to see so many other
families out there -- families and friends -- and even businesses -- that care so much about our precious children.

                                                    Visit JDRF                                 Hope to see you next year!      Lahle Wolfe
