5k Walk for Cystic Fibrosis

This year’s walk is the second to take place in Southbury and will commence at Ballantine Park on May 19, 2012.  The event starts at 9:00 AM with sign in and activities for the kids.  The walk starts at 10:00 AM and will include a rest stop along the route. Those interested in walking should pre-register at http://www.cff.org/great_strides or contact Lauren Brenneman at 203-725-8558.

Also anyone is invited to join the "Southbury Starbucks" team to help us meet our fundraising goal!

Funds raised through Great Strides have helped spur dramatic progress in the lives of those who have cystic fibrosis. Fifty years ago, most children with CF did not live long enough to attend elementary school. Today, people with CF are living into their 30s, 40s and beyond.
