Welcome to the 2012 March for Babies season!
We are so excited about our 2012 walks this year - and we're particularly excited that you've found your way to our Middle Tennessee March for Babies blog! We hope you check back often for fundraising tips, featured families, family team standings and who knows what else! (And if you do know what else you'd like to see here, leave a comment, and we'll get on it!)
First, let me make a few introductions. I am Nancy Speas Hill, your blog host for the season. If you marched with us last year, you may remember me as the 2011 Family Teams Specialist. While I've moved on to a new job, I am thrilled to be hanging around the March of Dimes as the captain of our family's team (Itty Bitty Becca's Team) and one of this year's Family Teams Committee Co-Chairs, serving in the fabulous company of Co-Chair Ashley Turner (of the superstar Team Ellie) and the 2012 Family Teams Specialist, Jaci Ryals! We are so excited to be working with our family teams to help make this year's March for Babies the most meaningful, positive and productive ever. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions, concerns, thoughts, etc. Jaci is in-office several days a week, and you can reach her at jryals@marchofdimes.com or 615-399-3200. She can put you in touch with Ashley or me, or you can leave a comment here, and we'll get back to you!
And speaking of the Family Teams Committee...it's not too late for you to join us! If you want to have an extra-special March for Babies experience by helping shape special family teams specifics, like the family teams area or the preemie picnic, or by helping welcome or mentor new family teams, PLEASE let us know ASAP, so we can get you in the loop! We'd love to have you!
And finally....in case you haven't already signed up or re-activated your team, take a minute NOW and visit www.marchforbabies.org to get the ball rolling! Check out the sidebar on the right to see some of your walk options. We'll be right there with you!
