Rally On!

Thanks to all of you who have gotten in touch with us after hearing about Rally Across America from the Thomas team! We have loved having so many people involved, and it has been awesome to meet you and hear your stories.

With 3 weeks left to go, we have 5 more big stops to make, and we would love to have you involved if you live in any of the areas where we will be:

*Iowa City, IA (Monday, August 21st): Visiting the Children's Hospital of Iowa, fundraiser lunch at the Coralville Outback Steakhouse from 12-2pm

*Columbia, MO (Friday, August 25th): Visiting the Children's Hospital, fundraiser TBAKansas City, MO (Saturday, August 26th): Event with Vineyard Vines (one of our awesome sponsors!)

*St. Louis, MO (Wednesday, August 30th): Visiting St. Louis Children's Hospital, fundraiser TBA

*Nashville, TN (Friday and Saturday, September 8th and 9th): Visiting Vanderbilt Children's Hospital (Sept. 8th), fundraiser lunch at Outback Steakhouse from 11-1 (Sept. 9th)

*Atlanta, GA (Sunday, September 10th): Party to celebrate and see everyone who saw us off on June 1st

We would love for you to join us at the local hospitals or at one of our fundraiser events. We will also be in these areas for a day or so before and after the events, and we would love to meet up with you while we are in town even if you can't make it to one of our events. Also, if you live in or between any of these cities and are interested in hosting 4 of us, we would be honored to meet and stay with your family.

Thanks for all of your help and support of Rally Across America - it has enabled us to share your inspiring stories along the way, have places to sleep at night, and raise $112,000 for Children's Oncology Group research since June 1st!!! Be sure to check out our website (http://www.rallyacrossamerica.org/), and please contact Claire (claire@rallyfoundation.org, 770-316-9124) if you live along our route and would like to be involved!
