2nd Annual Pedal For Parkinson's

Back by popular demand, it’s Team Fox Chicago’s

Second Annual PEDAL FOR PARKINSON’S event.

For the 2nd year in a row, we're teaming up with Flywheel Sports in Gold Coast for a 55-minute, high-energy, fun-filled class.  We'll sweat to amazing music as we pedal our way to a cure for Parkinson's Disease.

We’re thrilled this year to be led by the incredible Flywheel All-Star instructor and celebrity trainer- Candy Morales (her classes sell out within minutes). How lucky are we?!

If you're new to Flywheel or have never been on a bike, not to worry, we've got you covered!  Flywheel provides bike shoes and towels; all you need to bring is yourself and athletic socks.  Class runs from 10:30 - 11:25am but we suggest arriving by 10:00am to get your shoes and get situated on your bike.

**Remember that Daylight Savings is that morning, so you will get an extra hour of sleep!**

Raffle prizes will be available from the following sponsors: 

After the ride, we'll head to Stout Chicago to grab a much-needed drink and watch some football. Don't miss this fun day... with only 48 bikes available this great event will sell out quickly!  Buy your ticket today!

Tips for Parkinson's

 
 

On Sunday, August 14, 2016, the Chicago Professionals for Parkinson’s Research will hold its first annual Tips for Parkinson’s event at the Thompson Chicago hotel. The event —first launched 11 years ago in New York City —combines food, silent auction, a 50/50 raffle and a bartending competition for an afternoon of fun, while raising awareness and money for the Michael J. Fox Foundation and its mission to find a cure for Parkinson’s disease.

Join the Bartending Competition

Bartending teams will compete against one another to raise money for Parkinson’s research. Each team, made up of 3-4 people, will have 45 minutes to serve drinks and collect tips. At the end of the day, the winning team will be awarded a prize and be named the 2016 Tips for Parkinson’s Champions.

Interested in creating a team? Please contact Abby Baumann at tipsforparkinsonschi@gmail.com to set up a team. Teams must raise a minimum of $200 prior to the event to compete. Team members do not need to purchase event tickets.

South Bend Cubs Baseball Game

South Bend Cubs Baseball Game

Grab your Cubbie or baseball loving family and friends and head to South Bend for an afternoon game!  The South Bend Cubs are a Class A minor league affiliate of the Chicago Cubs.  We are very excited to have this opportunity to enlarge our network and promote our cause!

The atmosphere is a cut above many other Single-A ballparks. There is a lot for almost every age here at Four Winds Field that should bring the fans back multiple times throughout the summer. The outfield concourse highlights many of these wonderful points from the Tiki Hut, team gift shop, children's play area, playground and water fountain. The team gift shop is a converted synagogue that was originally built in 1901, making the home of Cubs merchandise a rather unique shopping experience. Just outside of the front door is a fire pit with wooden benches and the Tiki Hut has ample space and tables for the adults. The grass berm area lines up the left side of the outfield and offers room for blankets and stretching out.  The biggest attraction might just be for the kids or the parents who need a place to entertain the young ones for a few hours. The Cubs provide two areas of interest for the little ones with inflatable slides, bouncy house shaped like the team mascot and basketball nets. On the other side of the outfield stands in the right field corner is a jungle gym and water fountain that gets the thumbs up from many who splash through the water or climb the ropes.

Tickets are $10.  Please contact Steffi (steffi.lentz@gmail.com) to purchase tickets!
