Elliott's Angels Stars of the Night 5.08K

Welcome Back Returnees!! And Welcome New comers!! Our 3nd Annual 5.08K Walk to raise money and awareness for Cystic Fibrosis families. We choose to host a 5.08K over any other fundraising efforts because we knew as parents of a CFer we need to set an example for Elliott and other kids. Why 5.08k and not a 5K, because Elliott has a Double DeltaF580 Mutation of Cystic Fibrosis and we wanted to specialize the run/walk. Living a healthy life style and keeping the lungs healthy is priority especially for those with Cystic Fibrosis. It is our sincere hope to reach out and raise awareness for the Cystic Fibrosis Community across Michigan through donating to the Friends and Families of CF Foundation as well as Elliott's Angels giving the local CFers a chance to just be a kid as often as possible. Our goal is 100 registered runners for this event. Get out your flash lights for the Stars of the night hike on the Manton Pines RV property. Who do you walk for? wear your own shirt to support them if you'd like!

Elliott is six years old who started kindergarten at Manton Elementary School in Manton, MI this year. He enjoys running and laughing with his sister and cousins, reading books, going on hikes and to the beach and movie nights with his mom and dad.  His family and friends help to keep him busy while doing treatments weather it is a video game or playing with cars.  His latest adventure was baseball, and he loved it very much!  There wasn't a ball that was hit that he did not try to run and get!  Even ran past all of his teammates still on base, to score a home-run....a couple times.

He was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis at five days old and was born with a meconium ileus. After many surgery’s and procedures, he came home from the hospital at almost 5 months old. Elliott doesn’t enjoy his treatments, but needs them to survive. Cystic fibrosis is an inherited life-shortening and life-threatening disease that damages the lungs, digestive system, pancreas, and other organs. It is incurable, with Elliott he can do whatever he wants if we put his medical care first, however, this is not always going to be the case. When Elliott isn’t busy with treatments, therapies, doctor visits or suffering through flare-ups (which can result in two-week hospital stays for “tune-ups”), he is able to be a kid. He spends two to three hours each day doing treatments and therapies. The median lifespan of a child with CF is 42 years old.

This is a fun 5.08k walk/hike, We encourage you to come out on June 7th & 8th to enjoy the Starts of the Night 5.08K and a weekend full off FUN for the whole family!
