April 27, 2012 was Progeria Research Foundation’s Community Organization Night at the Lexington Legends. Zach had a fan section with over 200 people, and he had a great time throwing the 1st pitch and watching the fireworks. We raised $557 for PRF, but even more than that it was an excellent opportunity to raise awareness of Progeria! We send out a huge thank you to the Lexington Legends for their excellent hospitality and to KU for the use of their suite. Good times had by all! Here are some excellent images from the night (thanks to Zoe, Uncle Rusty, Gail & Bonnie)
April 14, 2012 – PRF and NHRA Pro Stock Drag Racer Erica Enders joined forces this past weekend to help raise awareness of Progeria in the racing community. Our family was fortunate enough to join Erica at the 3rd Annual 4 Wide Nationals in Charlotte, NC on April 14th. PRF and Erica’s group filmed a Public Service Announcement and staged a News Release. Zach had a BLAST! He got to visit Erica in her pit, get a grand tour of her trailer and a ton of cool stuff in between. Best of all, Erica let Zach sit in her car! We send out a HUGE thank you to Erica, GK Motorsports, Cagnazzi Racing, Charter, Oakley (for the cool glasses), and all the other awesome people who are now PRF supporters! THANK YOU FOR GIVING ZACH THIS DAY HE WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER!
