MSU Health Rally!! :)

On Saturday, April 2nd, I traveled to Michigan State, in Lansing, to participate in a Health Rally! It was sort of like a public expo about health issues and put on by first year medical students!
I wore my skelegirl outfit and brought all of the materials I use when giving my presentation to students about Best Bones Forever! I was very blessed to have the official Skele-girl photo poster with me from the Best Bones Forever headquarters! They shipped it to me from Washington, D.C. and it proved to be a huge hit at the rally!! I was so happy to have it with me!! :)
The trifold display I use is a great conversation starter, just like my costume, and it gets people of all ages interested in Osteoporosis education! I had magnets, posters, bone tattoos, and journals on display and they were available to the  public for free! I was humbled to be involved in the Health Rally and  by helping to advertise the BEST BONES FOREVER health campaign made me especially happy!! Volunteering has been a passion of mine since I was very young! I felt like I was in my element and it gave me such joy to spread the word about this important and worthy cause!!! :)
