Big Day on April 19th

April 19th is going to be a big day for CHERUBS around the world.  But for Illinois (Wisconsin, Indiana, and Michigan) members there are a number of ways to participate in the day's Awareness events.  Of all the events taking place on April 19th to raise awareness for the CHERUBS Day of CDH Awareness around the world, Illinois has two events of its own (with a 3rd nearby).  This doesn't count the Virtual Parade of CHERUBS that all CHERUBS members can participate in regardless of whether or not they can attend an actual parade.

The Chicago Parade of CHERUBS will be taking place at Children's Memorial Hospital in the Lincoln Park area of Chicago.  We are expecting around 70 people to come out for our balloon launch and walk around the hospital area to raise awareness of CDH.  There is still time to register for this event.

The Peoria Parade of CHERUBS will be taking place at the Glen Oak Shelter at Glen Oak Park in Peoria.  This event will take place on April 22nd and is shaping up to be a huge event for CDH awareness as well.  There is still time to register for the Peoria event as well.

Finally for those of you near the Missouri/Illinois border, there is the St. Louis Parade of CHERUBS.  This event will take place on 4/19 at SSM Cardinal Glennon Children's Medical Center in St. Louis.  This is going to be another huge parade for CDH Awareness.  You can still register at http://stlouis2012paradeofcherubs.eventbrite.com/.
