Hello! You didn't miss the Zane's Foundation First Annual 'Special Needs Awareness Walk & Fun Day!' It is this Saturday, September 4, 2010. Come and register at Cuyahoga Falls High School parking lot at 8 a.m., the free t-shirt pickings are getting slimmer by the day! We may not have your size, but you will still get a raffle ticket and host of other goodies!
We will walk to Bolich Middle School Layboure Field at 9 a.m. with Mayor Robart leading the way! At Bolich, there will games and activities going on and a huge selection of raffle baskets (over 50) to look at and decide where to put your raffle ticket! Don't worry, extra raffle tickets are available to buy! Food and inflatables will be at a nominal cost to you! All games and other activities are free to play!
You will have a couple hours at Laybourne Field to enjoy the festivities, but the Fun Day will end at noon!
This day is possible due to the City of Cuyahoga Falls, the City Schools of Cuyahoga Falls, Zane's Foundation, and the many corporate and personal sponsors that have come forth and donated time, money or items for this event! Thank you to everyone that has contributed in some way big or small!

Thank you so much to everyone that went to Applebee's in Stow on August 11, 2010. Zane's Foundation received a check in the amount of $106 for their share in the profits of Zane Foundation customers. We also had a 50/50 raffle going on at the information table and Pam Dargan, of Cuyahoga Falls, won $34! So altogether, we got a nice donation of $140.00 to put towards a grant for a lucky family! Thank you Zane Foundation supporters and Applebee's!
I also want to thank the following volunteers for their help that day: Jeff, Maggie, Dustin, Milena and Kelly. You were a big help and made things so much easier for us!

We want to thank Dr. Michelle DePolo, a Pediatric Psychologist from KidsLink, for coming to our Community Meeting this month to be our most gracious guest speaker. This was a small group, but what a great group we had! We got to sit and talk and ask our questions and discuss the answers and ask more questions, etc....... Dr. DePolo was so kind and gracious and totally made us totally at ease, no matter the question, subject matter, etc.........it couldn't have been any better for us! It was so nice to be around parents who understands you and a doctor who also does as well! THANK YOU, DR. DEPOLO!!!
