    Upcoming Wilmington NC Events

    We have some awesome events coming up in Wilmington NC that you may want to mark your calendar for!

    March 15 - Eli's Family Fun Run. Founded in memory of our cherub, Eli's Family Fun Run is a 1 mile run / walk to benefit Cherubs. It is also part of the Wrightsville Beach Marathon Weekend for you runners out there. For the truly hard core, this year we are also offering the 3 Pointer (Eli's Run, the 5K, and Half Marathon) and 3 Pointer in OT (Eli's Run, the 5K, and Full Marathon) to fuel the March Madness!

    It is a great family event and we would love to have you. Registration is here:

    April 19 - Spin for CDH. We will be riding stationary bikes to mark the International Day of Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia Awareness. Starting at midnight and running the full 24 hours of April 19th, we will pedal for 24 hours for all the cherubs out there! We need people to take 1hr shifts and the only cost is your time. If you're in the Wilmington area, please come join us! Message me if you want to claim your hour.
