I have done my fair share of volunteer work over the years but NEVER have I been able to do something as important as I am doing right now! 

On December 1st, Eliza McKown, Peyton's BEST FRIEND, was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes.  Her friends and family want to support her in the effort to find a cure for this disease which is estimated to affect 1 in 3 people by 2050.  Eliza has embraced this new aspect of her life with a positive attitude and our hope is that you will help to show her your support.

On June 2, Team Eliza’s Echelon (including ALL 6 UELMEN'S) will be participating in the Tour de Cure Bike Challenge.  We will be biking 27 miles in honor of Eliza and her Type 1 Diabetes. Want to learn more about our challenge.  Check out Eliza’s team page at http://main.diabetes.org/goto/elizasechelon

Instead of the traditional fundraising, we decided to have a PARTY in Eliza’s honor.  Please join us for a night of fun at the Waterpark of America! https://www.facebook.com/#!/events/234051576690137/
Funds that we raise go to the Tour de Cure - American Diabete’s Association.
LIKE THE IDEA OF THIS... JOIN US THURSDAY APRIL 26th AT THE WATERPARK OF AMERICA for a night of fun!!!!!
