Moving forward...need your help

Hi, everyone!  So, this morning, I've decided to act on an idea that I've had for several months now.  The National Brain Tumor Society (who's website is an amazing asset for many reasons) has both Fundraising and Awareness Walks, Rides, etc.  I've noticed, however, that there are none in North Carolina.  I have decided to try to organize some sort of awareness/fundraising event in NC.  We have the Relay for Life, of course, but I'm trying to find something more specific to Brain Tumors and the havoc they wreak indiscriminately.  I've contacted National Brain Tumor head office for advice on how and what to do next but would like you guys out there that come across this blog to provide help (advice, guidance, comments).  I really like their "Get Your Head in the Game" campaign and think that approach would be appropriate.   If you are located IN North Carolina or have experience with this sort of issue, please contact me ASAP.  Given that we have one of the major centers for research here--The Tisch Brain Tumor Center at Duke University (my alma matter!), I'm actually surprised there aren't events already.  HELP! :-)  Thanks!!!
