Prouty

The Prouty Story
The first Prouty was held in 1982 when four nurses rode 100 miles through the White Mountains of New Hampshire.  Their purpose? To honor the courage and strength of their patient, Audrey Prouty, in her fight against cancer. In its 28th year (2009), The Prouty drew more than 4600 participants and raised more than $2MM to benefit Dartmouth-Hitchcock's Norris Cotton Cancer Center.  


I have a feeling that Audrey Prouty was a lot like Pam Paradee.  I will be riding my bike at the Prouty on July 10th with the boys and other members of Pam's family.  The Prouty is a major fundraising event for the Norris Cotton Cancer Center here at DHMC.  Our team name is: Team Pam.  If you would like to donate to our team please follow this link:  TEAM PAM
Prouty home page for more info on the event:   PROUTY

Please do not feel obligated to do this, many of you have been and continue to help us in many ways and we truly appreciate this support.  The people at Norris Cotton and DHMC have been amazing to us for the last three years and we have and will continue to support them in their efforts to fight Cancer.  If none of you have ever been to Norris Cotton or DHMC (and hopefully you won't have to!) you should feel good about the fact that we have such an amazing facility so close to us here in VT/NH.

If you would like to join us in Hanover on July 10th and walk or ride please DO!  You can join Team Pam at the link above.  You will feel great about being part of such an event.  If you are going to come and participate please let me know so we can all be together as much as possible.  They event is very kid friendly!
