Attention UF Class of 2016!! September is Dystonia Awareness Month and we need your help to spread the word and raise awareness for this debilitating disease. Did you know dystonia is the third most common movement disorder, behind only Parkinsons and tremors? Over 500,000 people are plagued with the disease of dystonia, yet only a small portion of the population is aware of it. This year, Tyler’s Hope for Dystonia Cure Inc. and the University of Florida are uniting as a common front to spread awareness and raise attention to the impact of this disease. If you are looking for a way to get involved and support Tyler’s Hope, this Saturday on September 27, 2014, Tioga Town Center is putting on Gainesville’s Annual Wobtoberfest Event! Hosted by the World of Beer, this year’s event will consist of a 5K, live music, Oktoberfest games and festivities, and of course German themed foods and drinks! All proceeds are generously donated to four local charities, including Tyler’s Hope for a Dystonia Cure. Sign up to volunteer at the 2014 Wobertoberfest this Saturday, on September 27, 2014! If you or your friends are interested in volunteering, click the link below and sign up for a shift! signupgenius/go/10c0b49a5a62aaa8-wobtoberfest/ If you have any questions or concerns about the event or dystonia, please feel free to e-mail UF HOSA at hosauf@gmail or contact me, Meghan White on Facebook! Thank you and have a great day!
