Still Moving Forward in St Louis
Nancy Present and Team Prepare for 2nd Walk-a-thon
Moving Forward - the second annual St. Louis Dystonia Walk-a-thon will take place on Sunday, June 8, 2008 at the scenic Creve Coeur Park in St. Louis, Missouri. Registration for this event begins at 8:30 am and the donation for participation is $25. T-shirts, refreshments, and fun will be provided for all participants.
Nancy Present, founder of the event, states that because dystonia has altered her life so dramatically, she and her husband Larry are dedicated to finding a cure. Nancy states that “ironically, I get relief from my neck twisting when I walk or when my body is in motion.” This is the inspiration for the Walk-a-thon.
In the first year of the event, the Presents and their committee surpassed their goal raising nearly $22,000.00. Their goal for this event is to raise at least $30,000.00 towards eradicating this disease.
Nancy commented that “we welcome everyone to join us as we move together towards creating better lives for all those affected by dystonia.” We need committee members, walkers, sponsors, and in-kind donors. If you have questions, please feel free to contact Nancy at 314-469-3243 or stldystoniawalk@ aol.com
