THE WOODLANDS, Texas -- Did you know that 1 in 3 children in the United States faces a future with diabetes? The American Diabetes Association works everyday to change the frightening future that diabetes has in store, but we need your help. Together we can stop diabetes. Take the first step today by registering to walk in our local Step Out: Walk to Fight Diabetes event. Registration is available at the ADA's Web site at the link below, or call 1-888-DIABETES to register over the phone.

The American Diabetes Association's Step Out Walk to Fight Diabetes will be held on Saturday, Nov. 21, at Northshore Park. The event schedule is as follows;

Every step you take and every dollar you raise helps the American Diabetes Association provide education programs in our community, protect the rights of people with diabetes and fund critical research for a cure. Once you register, use our online fundraising tools to create your personal web page, email your friends, family and co-workers, accept online donations and raise more money to stop diabetes.

It's more fun to Step Out together! Gather your friends, family and co-workers and form a Step Out team! It's a great way to do good together and share in a fun and healthy community experience. Teams come in all sizes-two or more people make a team! Corporations, friends & family, clubs & organizations and school groups build teams to walk for those who have been touched by diabetes. Get started today by selecting "Form a Team!"

When you walk, you help us stop diabetes. Walking is one of the easiest, most relaxing forms of exercise for many people, but especially for those living with diabetes. By participating in Step Out: Walk to Fight Diabetes, you can get fit, reduce your risk for type 2 diabetes and support the American Diabetes Association!
