It is a "Fun-Raiser" for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, a ravaging disease that shortens the lives of thousands. Our goal is to raise awareness of this genetic disease of the lungs and digestive system that currently has no cure, to focus on bringing research dollars to the Sacramento branch, and to enjoy an amazing walk across the Central City. For more information on this terrible disease click here: http://www.cff.org/Chapters/sacramento/Ale Captains (i.e. me) will lead crews of 10-30 people on a gourmet and pub jaunt.
