Family and Friends of Nan's Fans,
Another year in the books with some great results. This year, we helped the Lehigh Valley ALS Association raise $151,000, contributing with 42 team walkers and $3,400 in online and day-of-walk donations. The team had a great time enjoying a leisurely walk on a beautiful day in the Valley. All enjoyed a light lunch in Macungie afterward.
We want to thank all of you for your hearty walking legs and your generous hearts in making this a successful event. Hopefully you can all join us again next October.
Thanks and with love,
Marilyn, Lynn & Paul

Family and Friends of Nan's Fans,
A reminder that this Saturday is the annual ALS walk for the Lehigh Valley Chapter of the ALS Association. At this point, we have a good number of walkers (Demchers, McGintys, Gauntletts, Condracks...) and an even greater number of donors. You still have time to join us for either or both.
If you want to join the team or just make a donation in honor of Marilyn, you can go to web.alsa.org/goto/Nans_Fans
Also, let us know if you will be joining to post-walk get-together in Macungie (7071 Lincoln Dr).
See you there.
Thanks
Marilyn, Lynn and Paul
It is time for the annual Lehigh Valley "Walk to defeat ALS". The
Stadium/Coca Cola Park in Allentown, PA. Gates open at 9AM for
participants to pick up T-shirts, for teams to assemble and for all to
take part in pre-walk events. If you need directions or transportation,
let us know.
Marilyn ("Nan") is entering her 12th year with this horrible
disease. It is taking a slow but sure trip through her body affecting
her speech, diet and motor skills, but not her mind nor perseverance.
With all your prayers and support, she will continue to battle this slow progressing disease. With the help of the ALS Association of Greater Philadelphia, Nan will continue to be provided access to advancing research and treatments to help improve her daily life activities. Your continued support from events, such as the LV walk, keep this organization focused on defeating ALS.
to the cause, please let us know. You can register for the walk or to
make a donation in honor of Marilyn Condrack at:
t-shirt size in order to make sure that you are recognized as a
participant in this great event. If you have any problems registering
as a participant or donor, please reach out to Paul at 610-327-1226 or
email him at pjcon@comcast.net for assistance.
There are refreshments available at the park, donated by many
sponsors of the ALS Association. Additionally, after the walk, we hope
you will all join Nan's Fans at Lynn and Jeff's house (7071 Lincoln
Drive, Macungie, PA) for a light lunch and lots of friendship.
Thank you, and we look forward to seeing all of you.
Marilyn, Lynn and Paul
