Amanda's mother was diagnosed with MS in 1994 when Amanda was just a junior in highschool. She watched and helped out the best she could as her mother was forced to adjust to living with this debilitating disease. Even now, her mother continues to adjust to the effects of MS as her symptoms change and progress.

Amanda participated in 9 MS walks and the MS 150 bike tour last year. She recruited several teams for the walks, as many as 25 people in one year! HORRAY AMANDA!

She continues her annual focus on service by recuriting Daddy Long Legs & the Itsy Bitsy Spiders for the Great West MS 150 Biike Tour July 12 and 13 in Colorado!
