This event was initiated to shine a light on the impact of Lyme and other Tick-Borne diseases on our Youth and Children.  The goal is to generate awareness of these diseases so they are considered in the differential diagnosis, especially with children and youth presenting with unusual, confusing symptoms consistent with the broad spectrum of symptoms now known to be associated with these Tick-Borne diseases.  In addition, this event is the annual fund-raiser for MontCoLyme, a non-profit organization focused on education, outreach and support. 

This year, the event will be emceed by Tara Murtha, an award winning journalist with the Philadelphia Weekly.  Special speakers will include:

                - Dr. Jingduan Yang, Jefferson-Myrna Brind Center of Integrative Medicine

                - Julia Wagner, President of MontCoLyme
