Exciting news!!

[mom2tori]

Our county has it's own women's magazine called Inspire that is for women about women in our county. I just set up and appointment with one of the editors to do a feature story on me and my experience with preeclampsia and my involvement with the walk-a-thon. I am soooooo excited!!!! I feel like I won the lottery or something! So as of right now I have like 38 registered walkers and that is BEFORE the paper puts something in (I have an interview with them on Monday) and before Inspire and what if the govenor's wife decides to come? I can't even imagine how many people will be here then! I am so excited and SOO honored to be a part of the foundation and the walk-a-thon! I feel so lucky to be able to say that yes I am involved with this incredible, amazing group of women.

Alissa, we are so pleased to have people like you representing us. Be sure to send Jaime a copy of the final interview and also--please everyone send Jaime digital or hard copy photos of your event. We would like to have a walk-a-thon section on the website with pictures and stories. Keep that in mind and see if you all can find a friend to "record" your walk-a-thon in pictures. Way to go!!
