Egmondville woman agrees
to host another bike-a-thon
The Central Regional Office of SL Jude
Children's Research Hospital has announced
Gayle Hoffman has agreed to chair the St.
Jude Children's Research Hospital Bike -a
thon in Egmondville. Mrs. Hoffman ran a
similar event two years ago. At that time
children hiked around the race Lack.
St Jude Children's Research Hospital was
founded by entertainer Danny Thomas. The
institution opened its doors to the public in
1962 to combat catastrophic diseases which
afflict children, St. Jude Hospital is non -sec -
tartan, non-discriminatpry. and provides
medical care to over 4.209 patients.
Al St Jude, scientists and physicians are
working side by side seeking not only a better
means of treatment, but also the causes,
cures and prevention of these terrible killers.
All findings and information gained at the
hospital are shared freely with doctors and
hospitals all over the world. Thanks to SL
Jude's. children who have leukemia, Hodg-
kin's disease. sickle cell anemia, and other
child killing diseases now have a better
chance to live.
The Bike•a-Thon program is dedicated to
"Terry." Terry was diagnosed with leukemia
in March of 1978, and began treatment at St.
Jude Children's Research Hospital. Today,
she is well and off all medication. Terry is a
living example of the progress and success of
the research. patient care, and educational
programs of this internationally recognized
hospital.
The funds raised in the Bike-a-Thons this
spring will help assure the continuation of the
life giving work at the hospital.
The concern which Mrs. Hoffman has for
the work being done at St. Jude is greatly
appreciated. The children hope citizens of
Egmondville will wholeheartedly support the
upcoming Bike-a•Thon.
