  • Rating: No Rating
LOOKING FOR A UNIQUE EVENT TO BECOME INVOLVED WITH WHILE HELPING TO SUPPORT the DEFEAT DIABETES FOUNDATION?

THE FLORIDA ORANGE FESTIVAL
® IS a unique event and PAL Sailor Circus has donated space under the Big Top in downtown Sarasota for the HOME STRETCH of The Walk - a 10,000+ journey of the U.S. perimeter by "Mr. Diabetes" - a 62 year old Type 2 Diabetic. The goal of this 8 year Walk has been to create awareness about Diabetes with particular focus on early detection and prevention. Mr. Diabetes is President of the not-for-profit Defeat Diabetes Foundation. There is an enormous amount of information on their website - www.defeatdiabetes.org - focusing on early detection & prevention AND information incredibly valuable for those who are diabetics. See Mr. Diabetes in this video www.goodtube.org and click on Mr. D.

Some businesses and interested parties have already stepped forward to make this a very special family event, including the Vietnam Brotherhood on their motorcycles, a local pipe & drum band, the PAL Sailor Circus management and its performers, as well as local restaurants and food chains. Here is a small taste of WHAT YOU CAN BECOME PART OF …

Diabetic Food Displays, Seminars with Registered Dieticians and Nurses,
Food Cooking Demonstrations, Recipe Handouts
