Phoenix Diabetes Expo 4/26/2008
Saturday April 26th the Arizona Ghostbusters appeared at the Phoenix Diabetes
Expo at the downtown convention center. It seems a strange place for us but we were asked by the local American Diabetes Association
office to help them promote and recruit more walkers the Step Out to Fight Diabetes Charity Walk we participate in. They surprised
us by giving us a booth to showcase our work and allowed us to pass out our information pamphlets and our flyers for our Free
Comic Book Day food drive. It was a long day but well worth it. Two of us stayed at the booth and three of us walked the floor
and stayed around the ADA booth for the walk recruitment. We had a great response and made alot of contacts with other non-profit
groups that would like us to help them out at future events. The hall was busy the entire day and there alot of informative
presentations and booths. We hope to be back next year. We'd like to think Mary Medola and the American Diabetes Association
for letting us help out.
