Nashville Sounds Peanut Free Night August 17th

A friend of mine told me that the Nashville Sounds have had a few peanut free nights this season.  I know some of the food allergy moms worked hard to make this possible.  I also want to thank the Nashville Sounds for bringing awareness to food allergies by setting aside nights so children that have life-threatening peanut allergies can enjoy a baseball game with their families. This is wonderful!


The last peanut free night is Wednesday August 17th 2011 at (against the Padres) at 7:05pm in Section D. Click HERE to read more. *Section-D will be designated as a peanut-free zone at Greer Stadium. For more information, call (615) - 690 - HITS.


Tickets are $12 in advance (prior to game date).  Children 2 and under are free, if they do not occupy a seat. Ticket prices include tax. To see more details, click HERE


Enjoy a night out with the family!!!!

I am sure I do not have to tell you that life is busy. I finally sat down and signed up team Allergen Free Please for the FAAN walk here in Nashville on Saturday, August 28th. I called and asked family and will be asking friends to join our team to help find a cure for food allergies and bring awareness to our community. If you want to walk, check in starts at 9am and the walk begins at 10am. The distance we are walking is 2 miles.

It was easy, and free to register. You can register a team or walk as an individual. It will be a fun day!

Take a few minutes to think of a team name and sign up now. August will be here before you know it!

Register for the FAAN Walk!

The FAAN walk will be HERE IN NASHVILLE this fall! We got to hear Kelsey Morgan, our 10 year old local ambassador share her heart with us at our F.A.C.T. meeting. What an inspiring young lady!

Let's sign our teams up (in honor of our children, or others dealing with food allergies) and start raising awareness within our communities and raise money to help find a cure. The earlier we sign up, the more time we will have to share with others.

It is free to register, FAAN asks that we instead collect donations to raise money for food allergy research and education programs. By registering online, you will receive an e-mail confirming that you are registered and information about setting up a personal fundraising webpage (how cool is this!). You will also be able to make secure online credit card donations.
