Take A Stand Against MS

You (or your kiddos!) are invited to take a Stand Against MS on Saturday, June 27. Here's how it works:

· Set up a lemonade stand on Saturday, June 27
· You may host your stand any time of day
· Stands can be in front of your home, at your church or office, even a business (please ask for their approval)
· Accept donations for the lemonade rather than setting a price, with all proceeds benefitting the Panhandle Office of the National MS Society
· All supplies are provided by the person/group hosting stand
· Great opportunity for any person of any age or even a group to help bring us closer to a world free of MS.
· May be used as a fundraiser for Bike MS
