A Little Wrap-up

 Little Looks Back

Though NF month is now over, we held some GREAT events to make 2012 memorable! We really BLEW THE LID OF NF during May 2012 to let the world know about Neurofibromatosis and the great work done by the Littlest Tumor Foundation (LTF)! We kicked off the month with our awesome “Scream” picture letting the world know about Neurofibromatosis. Then we had our 24-hour up and down College Avenue in Appleton. We had some interesting interactions with the bar crowd…

Then we unveiled our insightful Human Health and Services with an insightful interview with Tracy and Sami. There was a great Derby Party here in Appleton to show support of NF research. Throughout May we papered races in the Fox Valley and Green Bay area to make people know more about our sam-i-am race.

We were on multiple news outlets in the Fox Valley area such as on three radio stations and three TV stations to let the world know about NF and our great events! We finally got to close NF month with our famous sam-i-am walk/run tumors I do not like them at Plamann Park. Here are some pictures that we can reminisce about the fun we had. Stay tuned for our next events coming up in June!

Little goes on a run and walk for the cure!

Sam-i-am… tumors i do not like them run and walk

On Saturday May 26, 2012 the Littlest Tumor Foundation held the annual sam-i-am tumors i do not like them, run/walk for the cure. The event was held at the scenic Plamann Park located in rural Appleton. There was a fantastic turn out of over 300 people, despite the earlier rainy weather. During the event, we gave out special kids' bags. We kicked off the event with kids' fun runs to begin the race.

Thanks to InstaPrint Plus for making all the yard signs and posters, Apple Creek Orthodontics donated the dental care items in the kids’ bags, Big Apple Bagels donated the tasty bagels, Premium Waters, inc refreshed us with bottled water and the Little Gym. A special thanks to all of our interns and volunteers, as well as those at Plamann Park for letting us hold our event there. You are all so awesome! See you next year!
