Freedom From CF



The Crosby Show Team theme for Great Strides is "FREEDOM FROM CF" because we are walking for cure in hope that one day, we will all be "free" from this devastating illness. We hope to see everyone on Saturday in their best red, white and blue. If you haven't registered yet, you can do so here: http://fightcf.cff.org/site/TR/GreatStrides/9_Arkansas_Little_Rock?team_id=46609&pg=team&fr_id=5060


Saturday, May 21st at 7:30AM
The Little Rock ZOO
Great Strides - Cystic Fibrosis Foundation



Saturday’s weather is looking great this year! I know this post is long, but it contains info you are going to wish you knew on Saturday – so bear with me!

For those of you coming out, here is some important race day information: 

Registration
  • Parking is available across the street from the Main Entrance. Additional parking is available in the East Parking Lot (on the corner of Monroe Street / Zoo Drive).
  • Please get there early! Registration is from 7-8 am (by last name) and I am asking everyone on The Crosby Show team to be there by 7:30. 
  • ALL WALKERS MUST CHECK IN. Even if you have pre-registered online, we still need to verify your attendance at the Registration Center. We have a new check-in process this year, to hopefully alleviate the bottle-necking in years past. If you raised $100 or more, you will receive a ticket for a t-shirt to take to the t-shirt table and cash in!
  • If someone did not pre-register for the walk, they are still able to register onsite at the Registration Center. This includes those of you who didn't sign your kids up on the website but are planning on bringing them.
  • FYI - For each person who comes to walk, CFF pays $5 to the zoo. While the event is free, if you have not donated yet, please consider donating $5 or more to cover the cost.  
  • Anyone that arrives after 8 will need to pay the regular Zoo admission fee ($12/adult, $9/child). This is the Zoo’s rule, not CFF.

Team Stuff
  • Wear your red, white and blue gear to show that you are walking for Freedom from CF and so that everyone knows you are with THE CROSBY SHOW! 
  • Team photos are different this year and all teams have been assigned a time. The Crosby Show’s photo is at 7:45 so please be in the photo area by 7:40!!! After you sign in, grab some breakfast and head over to the left hand corner of the lot.
  • Breakfast will be provided by Chick-Fil-A and Sonic. Soft drinks, coffee and water will also be available. However, the food goes fast, so be there early to make sure you aren’t left out!
  • The program will begin at 8:10am. Our walk goes around the perimeter inside the Zoo twice.

Awards
  • The ceremony is at 10 am in the Zoo Amphitheater for final announcements and awards.
  • I know it’s Saturday and everyone has places and things to do but please consider staying for the Team Awards. Our team has usually dispersed by then, but we would like for you to stay if you can/will! Pretty please?


To FREEDOM!!!
