The Franny Fund seeks to engage family, friends, and new friends in our mission to support Frances Welch-Cabler, or Franny, on her journey towards improved well-being. Our goal is to raise $30,000 annually to pay for four, 1-2 week Therapy Intensive sessions and any equipment she needs that insurance does not pay for.
Appetizers and drinks are provided.

And it is certainly light-hearted—
But, it gets a really good message across. Learn about what stem cells are and where they come from and what they can do, before making a decision.

Crossfit Portland is holding a “Bring Your Friend” day where anyone who hasn’t done crossfit can learn first hand what we’re always going on about.
Some things you may learn during the hour and a half: what is a burpee and how to do it, Yes-you can you do a handstand, how long does it take to run around the block, and how many variations of the snatch are there.
You most certainly will have a good time though and find out how much fun it can be to get in shape. Click the link above for more info. The registration fee goes toward The Franny Fund. If you have any question, just message me and I’ll get back to you asap, or leave a comment below.
Here’s an overview of what went down Saturday morning in downtown Portland.
It was alot of fun and we definitely got some crazy looks, not only from the groups of runners going by but also the wedding party that was trying to take pictures while we were doing the event.
Check it out here
and they look great if I do say so myself.
Franny in her new electric wheelchair! Franny has been going to Shriners hospital for therapy to help in her recovery from her hip surgery, and the equipment rep said he had a chair available if Franny wanted it. Needless to say, he didn’t have to ask twice. Once they got it to the house, she kept asking me if we really got to keep it. I think she’s pretty stoked! Now she will be able to do things she’s never done before, namely chase her sister around.
Well, those participating don’t know either, but here are photos from last year to give you an idea!
