Washington D.C. With the Boys, Day Zero “But First a Little Walk”

by reissmd, posted in Uncategorized

Tomorrow we leave for a week long trip in Washington D.C. with David, Robyn and their 3 sons.  Oh yes, Lindsay is coming too.  But first we had a big day planned here in Los Angeles.

Today was the annual “Take Steps Walk” for the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation.  Each year Team Reiss raises money to help fund the research needed to find the cure to Crohn’s disease.  As you might know 2 of our 3 children have Crohn’s disease.

We had a great turnout for Team Reiss.  Thanks to so many kind and generous people we were the #1 fundraising team this year.  We also had an excellent turn out of team members for today’s walk. See below.

Team Reiss photo, missing a couple of late arrivals.  Also missing photographer Chuck Behrman whose arm was not long enough to allow him to be in the picture.

In addition to some great exercise walking there were lots of fun activities.   We had live music, face painting (a kid favorite) and my personal favorite, pseudo-sumo wrestling (See below).

Very cute watching these young kids in inflated Sumo Suits trying to knock each other over.

The Walk is over but it is not too late to join Team Reiss.  If you have not donated yet please follow this link to the Team Reiss page.

If you donate I will get an email notifying me and I will send you a personalized thank you as soon as we arrive in D.C.    Or possibly sooner.
