Join The Dude and Walk for Amazing!

Written by: The Dude. The Dude hosts a variety of shows on Star Studio, the in-house television station at Children’s Minnesota offering programming for kids of all ages.

Have you heard about this super cool event that supports Children’s? It’s called Walk for Amazing. It’s on June 22 from 7:30-11:30 a.m. at the coolest stadium in the country: U.S. Bank Stadium. We even get to go on the field where all the players go!

There are all sorts of awesome things to do after the walk. You can play yard games, go in a bouncy house, get your face painted and dance to music from DJ Kids Dance. And the best part? Everyone gets a medal for finishing the walk!

The walk was made possible with help from some of our friends at Boston Scientific, Ronald McDonald House Charities, Cargill, Gogo squeeZ, JohnnyPops, New Horizon and 98.5 KTIS.

We hope to see you there!
