The Atlanta, GA Parkinson support chapter is giving a pin for donations to the Emory University Movement Disorders research group. It is a beautiful cloisonne pin 3/4" square with a red sunburst on the horizon on a green background. At the top of the sunburst in gold letters "Find The Cure" and below the sunburst "PARKINSON'S". We plan to make this pin available at the Second Annual Parkinson's Disease Awareness Weekend May 17, 1997 at the Georgia Agricenter in Perry, GA. At I-75 in the center of GA. Over a thousand people from all over the country attended the meetings, booths and health fair last year, and we are expecting a good many more this year. I t will be preceeded by a dance at the Al Sihah Shrine Temple in Macon, GA on the evening of the16th. The featured speaker on the 17th will be Ray Watts, MD, Emory University, an internationally known Parkinson's Disease Research Physician. If any of you on this list want to attend, please do. This is an informative and fun event.
