SAVE THE DATE! Sunday, October 15, 2023 12-5pm @ Pierce Park
Spend the morning running the Scarecrow race, stop by Flint farm to pick pumpkins, then join us for our 5th annual Brain Games Cornhole Tournament & Family Fun day in Pierce Park! Live music, local beer, magician Ed Popielarczyk, raffle prizes, and the Clover food truck! There is no cost to attend the event. Food and beverages are available for purchase, however, everything else is simply whatever you would like to donate. Please spread the word, and invite your friends and family! Brain Games is our annual fundraiser benefiting moyamoya research at Boston Children’s Hospital. Our daughter was diagnosed with Moyamoya in June 2019. Moyamoya is a very rare brain disease that causes the narrowing of the cerebral arteries. This narrowing results in strokes, and without surgery, death. Our daughter had her first surgery in June 2019, second in December 2020, and underwent her third surgery August 2021 to help with her very aggressive advancement of the disease. We're hopeful she won't need another, but only time will determine that. Our goal is to raise $100,000 this year in order to continue funding her surgeon's research. Last year, thanks this community, we were able to raise $75,000! 100% of the funds that we have raised go directly into the surgeon's trust. Our daughter's second and third surgeries were techniques that he was able to advance & pioneer thanks to the donations that we and others have been able to contribute. Because the disease is so rare, there is very little, if any funding to assist. This is our way to give back to the surgeon's help in saving our daughter's life.
