Hello, everyone, and welcome to another scrumdittlyumptious edition
of Circle K Minutes: Longer than Seconds, More Concise than Hours Lets
get right to it
-We started off the same way we do: saying the Circle K pledge
Eventually, you all will know that lovely thing by heart Whoo-hoo
-Perhaps the most important part of the meeting was with members of Team
Kayla Christine Tibbits is Kayla Tibbits mother, and Kayla suffers from
Type I Diabetes What is Type I Diabetes, you ask? Well, Type I Diabetes
is when a person lacks a sufficient amount of insulin Kayla needs
insulin, so she gets four shots a day, as well as four blood tests Kayla
has had diabetes since the age of three, so when you do the math, thats a
lot of shots All in all, Team Kaylas presentation was quite moving, yet
sad, too
-So why did we have Team Kayla come? Well, the JDRF Walk is coming on
Saturday, and were asking
you to attend We will support Team Kayla to
raise money for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation The walk will
be held September 29th, 2007 at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo, from 8:30 am
to early afternoon If you are interested, let me know ASAP IF YOU ARE
