When during the event were the pinwheels given out? Were they functioning pinwheels? I was a chair of a new walk site in CT and I would have loved to be able to give out the pinwheels for cfer identification to prevent cross contamination but the CFF has said no functioning pinwheels because it encourages people to blow germs at eachother.

That is an excellent point about the pinwheels, LouLou. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> What was given out at your walk to help identify those with CF? All they had at ours were these tiny rose stickers, which you could not see until you were right on top of someone. This pretty much made them useless! I knew who had CF on our own team but not on the others~ I want to offer to provide something next year for those with CF that is more identifiable.
eta> we had the mini-frisbees at ours too. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> the kids loved them!

At our walk al CFers got flower leis. But you had to know to ask for them. Nice and subtle. Even Jess wore hers (As a bracelet, but it still counts)

we had a spot and set up a pinwheel garden. people wrote name on paper of a person with or passed from CF taped that paper to the pinwheel stem . Then that individual placed it in pinwheel garden. It was kind of funny we used to call my daughter turtle and they brought a turtle out and placed it so all kids could see it. Turtle was in the pinwheel garden and the turtle started heading right over to my daugter's pinwheels.
