LUPUS AGENCIES OF NY STATE AWARENESS
BOOTH AT THE 2007 NY STATE FAIR

For the 18th consecutive year volunteers from the Lupus Foundation of
Mid and Northern New York manned The Lupus Agencies of New York
State Booth at the NY State Fair during late August. The booth gives
us the opportunity to promote lupus awareness and disseminate information
to a much larger population within the state. Pictured above is the
Neyhart Family: Amber, Jeff, Max, Mari-Kristine, Kristina and Kathleen Davis
who coordinate and oversee the booth located in the Science Building
during the 12 days of the fair. Mari-Kristine received our Awareness Award
for 2006 for her dedication to promoting awareness in Central New York
through the state fair booth. She is holding her appreciation plaque.
Thank you to the Neyharts and all of our wonderful and dedicated
volunteers for their efforts: Jim, Pat, Tim, Deb, & Jacquelyn Mitchell;
Dick & Helen Lenart; David and Kathleen Arntsen;
Amanda Nemcek; Phil, Kathy, Andrew, and Matt Teague;
Jackie Taylor; Maryrose and Dale Bullock.
