    A FUN DAY WITH A GREAT CAUSE:

/Delaware News Articles/ - WILMINGTON, DE, May 23, 2007 - Breakfast and registration will begin by 9am, followed by a fun-filled morning of entertainment (including services by Crozer Medical Center, raffle table, music, balloon animals and much more).

Walkers signing up June 9th may receive prizes after the Walk-A-Thon. Remember to bring cash only for our great raffle table tickets!

St. Jude Children's Research Hospital is internationally recognized for its pioneering work in finding cures and saving children with cancer and other catastrophic diseases. Founded by the late entertainer, Danny Thomas, and based out of Memphis, TN, St. Jude freely shares its discoveries with scientific and medical communities throughout the world. No family ever pays for treatments not covered by insurance, and families without insurance are never asked to pay. All of St. Jude's overhead is kept low, which is why St. Jude is financially supported by ALSAC (its fundraising organization). Every dollar raised at this Walk will be sent directly to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital!

Visit the website at www.freewebs.com/saintjudewalk for information about the entire event. Please make checks for the walk payable to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and return early sponsor/registration forms to: St. Jude Walk-A-Thon c/o Volunteer Committee, 203 Hunters Run, Woolwich Twp., N.J. 08085. To volunteer your time, become an official business sponsor or donate raffle items, contact: Dr. Michele Blair, Phone: (856) 467-2871, E -mail: doctormblair@aol.com.

Please come out June 9th just before Fun Day to support St Jude Children's Research Hospital. Every dollar raised will help to save a child's life!
