Guest guest Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 Well, I guess we all need to choose some celebrities to contact and start there and see what happens. I have tried several angles and even did a brief segment on Fox 50 out of Raleigh, NC a couple of years back, thought it would help and would get things going in the right direction, but I fell short of what I wanted to do. We started the Tar River Arthritis Walk in our hometown last year and then we moved it to a near by larger city this year due to lack of support in our hometown, however we did accomplish getting it up and going and we always focus on JA. It is always noted in our material we post and we have a Junior honoree, which was my 5 year old Kaylee and then an older gentleman was our senior Honoree. I am just frustrated in trying to do things to get the word out and falling short of things when there is so many people that could do things to help if they would. By the way our walk this year raised around $32,000 for Arthritis Research. We raised the most out of the walks Held in NC this year and we are so proud and TEAM KAYLEE raised the most money out of the teams that walked even though there was a team of 115. We do everything we can and are working on finding new ways to get the word out and hopefully one day it will all pay off and we will get the much needed support and everyone will know KIDS GET ARTHRITIS TOO! and Kaylee, 5, Poly and uveitis Question (SPAM) Just wondering if anyone else is getting email with the Subject being (SPAM) JRA with different subjects on it? I DO NOT open these. Not sure why this is in the Email Subject though Robbin See what's new at AOL.com and Make AOL Your Homepage. Email and AIM finally together.
