Ready, Set, RALLY...Research Rally that is! The Center for Asbestos Related Diseases (CARD) invites you to join us for the 3rd Annual Research Rally on Thursday, October 11th, 2012 at the Memorial Center in Libby from 4:30pm to 6:30pm. CARD staff, along with researchers partners and other asbestos related community groups, will provide a fun, interactive learning experience about Libby amphibole asbestos. Researchers from across the country, as well as local community groups, will be on-site to share information and visit with the community about their projects.
The RESEARCH RALLY is an innovative way to engage community members and researchers in a fun and educational environment. This community-wide, family friendly event will encourage community members to interact with research teams, which promote understanding of projects. Many local organizations, such as the Libby Volunteer Fire Department, Environmental Protection Agency, Kiwanis and US Forest Service will be on hand offering interactive games, project information booths and learning activities for this thought provoking, fun filled experience planned for all ages. There will be prizes, balloons, popcorn, cotton candy, hot dogs and more!
Don’t miss this exciting opportunity to bring the whole family down and have a fun evening out, while learning about asbestos research and how research can improve our environment and our health. ____________________________
