Hi Everyone!!! It has been quite some time since I've posted here. The ABC Brigade Advisory Board (our engine) had a great working meeting this summer and one of the things I promised to do was to write in this blog weekly. So....it has been quite a while but time to fulfill that promise. As you see on our website, the ABC Brigade is committed to stroke education, prevention, and especially living life post-stroke!!! We will be updating our website soon to make it easier to navigate for you. We will have a listing of all stroke support groups in the area along with other available resources. We are also on Facebook as the ABC Brigade!
Our biggest event of the year is coming soon...The 5th annual STAMPEDE FOR STROKE is being held this year on October 29 (WORLD STROKE DAY) at Tower Grove Park. Registration is right here on this website. Theresa Notestine, our Race Dirtector, has been running this event for this five years, and she does one crazy fantastic job! She is a physical therapist and a runner so she knows how to get the job done!! Our first year we had about 250 people...23 of them were survivors. Last year we had about 600 and 82 of those were survivors...WE WANT 100 survivors!!! Please join us that day and be a voice for stroke!!!!
See you next week....I promise!!!
