Tons o' Fun to Follow Barnes Foundation Walk/Run for Life



Participants in the Barnes Foundation's Second Annual Walk/Run for Life this Saturday, August 28, won't want to get in their cars and hit the road after the walk is over. Instead, they should make their way to the Family Fun Festival held outside ProMed's corporate headquarters, just steps from where the walk will finish.

The Family Fun Festival is open to the entire community, not just walk participants! Attendees will be treated to food, a bake sale, dunk tank, silent auction, magician and DJ. A massage therapist will also be on hand to ease the muscles of tired runners and walkers. Kids of all ages will love the wide assortment of games, including limbo, ring toss, treasure sand pool, "pick up a duck," basketball shoot and inflatable jumpy.

Each activity requires tickets, which can be purchased at the event, or cash.

All proceeds from the festival will benefit the American Cancer Society's Illinois Patient Navigation Services. To learn more about the walk and festival, please visit www.barnes-foundation.org.
