I’ve had a lot of requests this year for mini-sessions so for the first time in 4 years I’m going to offer a few sessions.

It’s hard to believe that in just over a day the Walk-N-Roll for spina bifida here in Central Florida will be here! Because I’m leading Chance’s team and I know a lot of others out there who are a part of the spina bifida community may be following my blog, I wanted to share an official update with you all with some last minute information to help prepare you for the walk.

FIRST, if you’re planning to attend the walk…be sure you register. Anyone attending should register. Though it’s not mandatory, it will save you some time from doing that at the park and if you register you’ll be eligible for lunch the day of the event as well as some of the awesome prizes they’re giving away at the end of the walk. To register for the walk go online to http://www.walknrollsbacfl.org. If you’re planning to join us on Chance’s team here’s the direct link to join his team. If you can’t make it to the event but still wish to support us, you may make a donation online and be considered a “virtual” walker by showing your support through a donation. Any donations are truly appreciated and go right back to support our local spina bifida community. Last year our team raised over 6k. This year we just passed raising 1k. Something tells me we still have a lot more supporters out there…and I know many have told me they planned to attend, but still haven’t registered…so be sure to do that soon – we have only about a day left until the walk.

If you are going to the event, here’s a map of the park. This year we’ll be parking on the opposite side at Glenridge Middle School. Signs will be posted for registration, if you didn’t register online you may do so at the park but there may be lines so we encourage you to do that online as soon as possible if you’re planning to attend. The walk begins at 10AM, however, the opening ceremony will begin at 945AM and registration begins at 9AM. They are hoping to do a group photo at 945 at the start of the opening ceremonies before the walk begins. Our family will likely be there much earlier to set up and help get things in order.

If you’re joining Team Chance then you’ll arrive at the park and look for our team. We’re pretty sure you’ll be able to see the superman logos and our Super Chance shirts. We won’t find out our exact location at the park until the morning of the walk. I will have the registration packet and tickets for everyone who has registered that will be used for lunch, prize drawings, and for those of you eligible for the official event t-shirt. You must be present at the event to win any of the prizes they are giving away this year.

We have a limited number of Team Chance shirts. If you didn’t receive one already we’ll be handing them out on a first come first serve basis to those on the team.

Hope to have you all join Team Chance Saturday at the walk!

So here’s the deal, if you go the California Pizza Kitchen at Waterford Lakes in Orlando, Florida anytime on Saturday July 16th and present them with this flyer they will donate 20% of your total check to the Spina Bifida Association of Central Florida towards Chance’s team. Donation amount excludes proceeds from tax, gratuity, gift card and retail purchases. This awesome support is valid for dine-in, take out and curb-side service. If you’re interested in joining, please be sure to print out the flyer prior to your visit. We are not permitted to distribute the flyer at the restaurant, however, I was informed that if for some reason you forget it just mention Chance’s team and the Spina Bifida Association and they will still contribute. This fundraiser will support Chance’s team ALL DAY on July 16th! So go download the flyer now and help us spread the word!

YOUR CHANCE TO MEET MY BABY BOY
I’ve had so many people express an interest in meeting Chance. I know family, friends, co-workers, admirers of my photography and the many people out there that have been reading along as I have shared so much of Chance’s story. We’ll definitely be visiting the restaurant the day of the event. We’re planning on taking Chance with our family at 1pm and 6pm the day of the fundraiser. We’d love to see everyone’s support for this worthy cause and we’re excited to finally take a little time to finally celebrate our baby boy. If you make it out to support us definitely stop by to say hello to Chance.

MORE FUNDRAISING UDPATES
I’ve been working on helping spread the word about the event and am excited to see the response thus far. Beyond seeking donations for Chance’s team online for the Walk-n-Roll event I’m helping out in seeking corporate sponsors. If you know of any companies or organizations who are interested in contributing towards a cause such as this please encourage them to contact me directly. I’m in the process of having cards made to accompany some of the packets I send out to sponsors. Hopefully sharing Chance’s story may help others see how important it is to raise awareness and support the many families in Central Florida affected by spina bifida. Here’s the front and back of the card that’ll hopefully be sent out in the coming days along with sponsorship guide.

Date: Late afternoon/early evening, Saturday, October 24, 2009
Location: Downtown Church Street Train Station, Orlando, Florida
ONLY 4 Mini sessions will be available.
Price: $25 due upon booking

Mini Session includes:

• 20 minute photo session
• up to 4 people (if session is for children parents may step in at no additional charge)
• 10-15 photographs
• Low resolution digital copies of all photographs (that may be printed up to 4″x6″)

Larger print options will be available for purchase. Current rates are available for you to review online.

High resolution digital copies of all photos taken during the mini session may be purchased for an additional $75.

I expect this first mini session to fill up fast due to the limited spaces and the discounted rate for this first mini session. Rates of future mini sessions are likely to rise due to the high demand.

Feel free to share this information with family and friends who might be interested.

Note: Because of the time restraints of the mini sessions no mini sessions will be offered for newborns or larger groups.
