While many are making New Year's resolutions, the Southeastern Firefighters Burn  Foundation is working on a new tradition that promises family fun for years to come.  If you have a young child, or you're a child at heart, then mark your calendar for the Storybook BrunchThis new annual fundraiser, presented by PotashCorp and Tintoria Piana, will occur Saturday, March 1, 9 - 10:30 a.m. at First Baptist Church Fellowship Hall, 3500 Walton Way. 
 
Everyone will enjoy a hearty breakfast and watch their favorite storybook characters, including princes, princesses, and action heroes lead a parade, and linger  for autographs and photographs.  Children are encouraged to dress up as their favorite storybook character. 

 

"Not only will this be a fun family event, but it's occurring on the weekend that kicks off the National Education Association's Read Across America, an annual reading awareness program that calls for every child in every community to celebrate reading on March 2, the birthday of beloved children's author Dr. Seuss," shared Bobbie Jo Gainey, Development Director of the Burn Foundation.  "Thanks to American Family Insurance, every child will take a souvenir storybook home." 

 

The cost of the event is $20 per person, and includes a breakfast buffet. Advance reservations are required and seating is limited. Strollers and carriers are not allowed. Tickets are required for ALL attendees, regardless of age.Tickets may be purchased online by visiting sfbf.net.   For more information, call the Burn Foundation at 706-650-BURN (2876). 

 

Proceeds from the event will help the Burn Foundation advance its mission of caring for families of loved ones who are patients in the Joseph M. Still Burn Center at Doctors Hospital.The Burn Center admits over 2,000 patients annually from across the Southeast; twenty-five percent of the patients are children.

 

"We think this event is destined to become an Augusta family tradition," expressed
Dr. Jo Maypole, President of the Burn Foundation.  "Since we often work with pediatric patients and their families, this new event seems like a perfect fit. 
Children helping other children - it just feels right!"
