May is Brain Tumor Awareness Month

5/2/2013

I was walking the track the other day and I got to 10 laps and decided that I would walk 23 laps. As I was walking the idea came to me to do a walk-a-thon around the track  of 23 laps to raise money to send to Doctor Kieran -Pediatric Neuro-Oncologist / Researcher  in honor of Alec and May being Brain tumor month.  The ideas were rolling and I thought of having people pay $10.23 or $23.00 to walk.  When I ran this idea by Keith, he thought of having the people who are walking get pledges from others to sponsor their walk for $10.23 each. 
I thought this was a great way to raise funds and it  only took me about 1 1/2 - 2 hours to walk it and 23 laps = almost 6 miles.  
I asked Papa (my father-in-law) to ask Shawsheen Tech if we could walk there, but being short notice, it didn't look doable for May. Plus we would have to hire a police officer and get gross outhouses or as Alec called them, "Outhouse Poop". So this seems to defeat the purpose of raising money only to spend it on other things.
I welcome ideas on making this happen or other ideas. And if others want to raise funds in Alec's honor we welcome that too.
It is last minute , but I will work on it and if we can't make it happen this May, we will plan it for next May.

I am including the info to donate to Doctor Kieran if anyone would like to make a donation in Alec's honor to give other children the hope for a cure.

What a great idea, Laura! I will put some thought into ideas, too, and will help you in any way I can. (Even if it requires outhouse poop!!)
