Precious little ones like this are a good reason to get up early Saturday and take part in the March for Babies. According to the March of Dimes, one in eight babies born in Indiana are born premature.A walk on Saturday is an annual fundraiser for the March of Dimes. The organization raises awareness and research funds to fight premature births and birth defects. Barb LaDage is all too familiar with the challenges of birth defects. These are pictures of her daughter Samantha. The LaDage family is our ambassadors for this year's walk.
Registration for the March for Babies starts at 8:00a.m. at the Tippecanoe County Fairgrounds. There will be speakers and music starting at 8:30a.m. Then, the walk starts at 9:00a.m. There were about 1,300 participants last year. With our warm forecast, we hope even more people will do the walk. Mike Prangley and I will be there. We hope to see you.
