Robinson Real Estate will be out in full force with our team of walkers again this year. We have been long time supporters of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation's search for a cure and their mission is very near and dear to us. We have a special place in our heart for Mary Alice Lane, who is our team member Mike Lane's daughter. She was diagnosed with Cf as an infant and although you would never know it fom her sweet smile and cheery disposition it is something that she battles everyday. Mike and Bridget Lane, many other families in the area with children living with CF and all those in the community that continually support their cause have been an integral part of growing the Chattanooga area chapter of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Each year our wonderfully philanthropic community brings children like Mary Alice Lane closer to seeing a cure for this disease in thier lifetime. The CFF really is an amazing foundation and there will be an incredible group of people enjoying a wonderful event in this years Great Strides Walk on Sunday and we encourage you to come out and join us!
