Friends of mine have a son with Type 1 diabetes, so I agreed to participate in a fund-raising event on September 11, 2010 at College Park Ministry Center at 96th Street and Shelbourne Rd in Indianapolis. There will be several other businesses and vendors there from 1 to 3pm and a then a concert. Tickets are only $5 and can be purchased at www.iansarmy.com. Each ticket can be used to enter various prize drawings so it's a win-win situation.
After I posted this information on FB, I found out two more friends have children with this disease. I already knew of one more, so that brings my personal connection total to 5 children in 4 families. I had no idea it was such a prevalent disease. And there is no cure.
Please come out and support this event. You can see me work my dogs, meet some clients with their puppies (this event doubles as Sensible Puppy Field Trip), listen to some great music and even win a prize or two!
Hope to see you there!
