Come May 31, 2014, I will be a proud YLC JDRF committee member and guest speaker at the TypeOne Nation event discussing fitness, nutrition and type one diabetes. This event is a one day educational summit for all those in the type 1 community. The event will be at The Field Museum from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m. The cost is $10 (adult or child) and includes our event, lunch and admission to the museum.
