Join other supporters for a day of cornhole tournaments, food, open beer, beer pulls, amazing raffle items and FUN, FUN, FUN! It will be a special day of making memories, having fun and raising hope. Attendees will learn more about SMA while members of the SMA community will enjoy a day of support and friendship. Offer your support by purchasing tickets, serving as a sponsor or volunteer or donating auction items. Then enjoy an afternoon supporting those affected by SMA. With your help, we can make a real difference and have an amazing (and delicious) night of fun at the same time. What is SMA?SMA is a disease that robs people of physical strength by affecting the motor nerve cells in the spinal cord, taking away the ability to walk, eat, or breathe. It is the leading genetic cause of death in infants, affects approximately 1 in 10,000 babies, and about 1 in 50 Americans is a genetic carrier. It's a energizing time in the SMA community. There are now 3 treatments for SMA but still no cure, so our work is not done. We must continue to develop and deliver effective therapies that will change the course of SMA for everyone affected — from infants to adults — and eventually lead to a cure and we are excited to be supporting essential research. With your help, we can make a real difference and have an amazing night of fun at the same time.
