Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, Greater Kansas City Chapter (AAFA) is one of our local partner organizations. We are proud of this partnership and wanted to share one of the great things that AAFA is doing for kids and families dealing with asthma and allergies. AAFA hosts an annual, fun-filled Family Asthma and Allergy Education Day; it takes place on Saturday, March 6, 2010 at Shawnee Mission West high school in Shawnee Mission, KS. It is an interactive opportunity for families and individuals to learn about asthma and how to control it’s affects on their lives. Each adult will choose from a variety of classes to attend. Separate classes will be held for preschool and grades 1-6 which teach children the fundamentals of asthma and allergy treatment, while having fun. All classes are led by area healthcare professionals and physicians.
For additional information on the 15th Annual Family Asthma and Allergy Education Day, or to register, please contact the AAFAKC office. Space is limited, so don’t delay! Scholarships are available.
Another fun event highlighted in our Events Calendar is an ongoing stage performance of Peter Pan! Tickets are still available from the CYT (Christian Youth Theatre) box office. The performances, typically at 2pm and 7pm, are held in Olathe on the Mid-America Nazarene campus at Bell Cultural Events Center. This looks like a terrific production and features many, many talented youth from the metro!
