      <title>STUNT Receives Emerging Sport Recommendation from the NCAA's Committee on Women's Athletics</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">USA Cheer, the National governing body for the sport of Cheer, is proud to announce that the NCAA’s Committee on Women’s Athletics (CWA) has recommended to add STUNT as an NCAA emerging sport.</p><p>Memphis, TN -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 05/14/2020 --  STUNT expands participation opportunities for young women by providing an avenue for female athletes with skills in the area of cheerleading, gymnastics, weightlifting and competitive cheerleading to use their background in a new format. USA Cheer created STUNT as an opportunity for universities, high schools and youth-level programs to meet the strict Title IX requirements of a sport.<br />
<br />
"When we began the journey over 10 years ago, we brought in key experts and stakeholders to help us design a female sport that was derived from cheer. It was imperative that it satisfy Title IX requirements, was economical for schools to add, fun to play and engaging to watch," said Bill Seely, President and Chairman of the Board for USA Cheer. "We are thrilled and humbled that the Committee on Women&apos;s Athletics with the NCAA is giving us this tremendous opportunity to advance STUNT."<br />
<br />
The Committee on Women&apos;s Athletics identifies sports to be added to the Emerging Sport for Women program, which is a pipeline supporting the advancement of women&apos;s sports to NCAA championship status.<br />
<br />
The committee recognized the continued growth in high school STUNT participation, steady increase in the number of NCAA member institutions that sponsor STUNT, and support from the sport&apos;s national governing body as compelling rationale to include STUNT as an emerging sport for women. The committee further noted the relatively low cost of sponsoring the sport and the opportunity for the sports to enrich sponsoring institutions enrollment management strategies. STUNT participation opportunities for female student-athletes of all body types and diverse sport backgrounds, as well as opportunities for female sport administrators, coaches and officials.<br />
<br />
USA Cheer and the College STUNT Association salutes the hard work of the administrators, coaches and student athletes of all the STUNT programs who have contributed to this historic moment.<br />
<br />
"On behalf of USA Cheer and STUNT, we are beyond thrilled for what this means to female athletes from the youth level all the way up to college," said Lauri Harris, Executive Director of USA Cheer. "The opportunity to now be able to compete in a sport that&apos;s based on the skills that they love and enjoy competing in at the college level is truly a monumental moment. The dedication of the student-athletes, coaches and administrators across the country has paved the way for this landmark achievement".<br />
<br />
"The sport of STUNT has provided another unique avenue for women to pursue their athletic and academic careers and add to their collegiate experience," said Marcus Manning, Athletic Director at Centenary College. "The Committee on Women&apos;s Athletics recommendation to be an NCAA emerging sport is a transformative step for the future of STUNT. I want to commend the leadership at USA Cheer for putting STUNT in a position to be recognized as an opportunity for women, sport-sponsorship opportunity for member institutions, and for achieving NCAA championship status in the future."<br />
<br />
"The CWA&apos;s endorsement of STUNT today is a victory for Title IX and female athletes everywhere. STUNT will provide thousands of new athletic opportunities for women and girls at all level of sport," said Terri Lakowski, Title IX consultant and sport advocate with Active Policy Solutions.<br />
<br />
STUNT&apos;s next step is to continue its growth of the sport at all levels across the country, as we prepare for the next phase of working with each division in the emerging sport process.<br />
<br />
The Emerging Sports for Women program has been in existence since 1994. In the past 21 years, several sports have reached championship status, including beach volleyball, rowing, ice hockey, water polo and bowling. The program currently has five sports: equestrian, rugby, triathlon, acro &amp; tumbling and wrestling.<br />

      <title>Two-Time CHL Championship Winner Named New Wichita Ice Center General Manager</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Rob Weingartner, former Thunder Team Captain, instrumental in back to back championship wins for the Thunder, officially named new General Manager of the Wichita Ice Center.</p><p>Wichita, KS -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 06/12/2019 --  The <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Wichita Ice Center" href="https://wichitaicecenter.com/">Wichita Ice Center</a> announced today that Rob Weingartner will be its new General Manager, effective immediately. Weingartner has had a storied 25-year career in hockey and ice sports as both a player and coach, including back-to-back championship wins with the Wichita Thunder.<br />
<br />
<a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Rodney Steven II" href="https://www.genesishealthclubs.com/employees/rodney-steven-ii.html">Rodney Steven II</a>, who operates the Ice Center and co-owns the Wichita Thunder with his brothers Brandon and Johnny, commented on the addition. "We couldn&apos;t be more excited. Rob brings a lot of strengths to the table, but most of all, he knows ice sports. Whether it&apos;s as a player or as a coach, he&apos;s been around ice rinks, sports, and activities his whole life, and it&apos;s exciting to have him so deeply involved with all the wonderful programming, coaching, and activities we have running every day at the Ice Center."<br />
<br />
Weingartner began his career in 1992 with the Wichita Thunder of the Central Hockey League. During his four year tenure, the Thunder won two CHL championships and he was named team captain his final year. After four more years of professional hockey at various levels, he eventually returned to Wichita, once again as part of the Thunder organization.<br />
<br />
After serving two years as Assistant Coach, he was promoted to head coach in December of 2007. His tenure was cut short by a five-year battle with colon cancer. While he fought the disease, he was honored by having his Number 15 jersey retired by the Thunder.<br />
<br />
After regaining his health, he returned to the Thunder organization as coach of the Wichita Junior Thunder from 2012-2017. His past seven years of coaching reached its culmination in 2017, as Weingartner captured the Western States Hockey League Thorne Cup Championship.<br />
<br />
As a Level 4 USA Hockey Coach, Weingartner has spent decades around hockey rinks, running camps, and developing youth programs. He has also worked for the Goddard School District for the past fifteen years and served as the Supervisor of Engineers over the past years, overseeing 48 employees.<br />
<br />
Asked about the move, Weingartner expressed excitement. "The Ice Center is such a jewel for the entire Wichita community. Between hockey, youth programming, and figure skating, there&apos;s so much to offer. I&apos;m eager to really take things to the next level and introduce new people to the joys of ice sports at the Wichita Ice Center!"<br />

      <title>Colorado Case Underscores Why NFL Athletes Should Recommend Pardons to Trump</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Advocacy Organization Asks NFL Players to Join with Famed Federal Judge to Help Free Wrongly-Imprisoned African American Technology Executives</p><p>Denver, CO -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 06/22/2018 --  President Trump recently told NFL players who are deeply-troubled about racial injustice in the criminal justice system to contact him about federal cases where someone was wrongly convicted or done wrong by the system and he will pardon or commute their sentence.  Advocacy organization A Just Cause hopes for the sake of those who have been wrongly imprisoned and their suffering families, NFL players will take the President up on his offer.  <br />
<br />
"This is an opportunity for NFL players to make a real difference in the lives of children who have lost their father or mother, mothers and fathers who have lost their sons or daughters and wives who have lost their husbands," says Lamont Banks, Executive Director of A Just Cause.  "I also ask NFL athletes to join with the former federal judge who freed African-American middleweight boxer Rubin &apos;Hurricane&apos; Carter in his fight to pardon innocent African-American technology executives from Colorado known as the IRP5," adds Banks.<br />
<br />
"I don&apos;t know if race played a part," former federal judge H. Lee Sarokin told the Washington Post about the IRP executives (www.wapo.st/29jXqSC). "But if you put all the connections together, I don&apos;t know that there&apos;s any other conclusion," added Sarokin.  "You read every day about horrendous crimes committed by corporations, who are getting fined," said Sarokin.  "I thought it was rare for corporate executives to be indicted and imprisoned for not paying their bills," added Sarokin.<br />
<br />
After 9/11, the IRP5 launched a company (IRP Solutions Corporation) and developed innovative criminal investigations software to help federal, state and local law enforcement agencies improve information sharing and collaboration capabilities.  The company&apos;s software (CILC, pronounced "silk), which is an acronym for Case Investigative Life Cycle, was featured prominently in national law enforcement publications and received high praise from major law enforcement agencies, including the FBI, Denver Police Department, NYPD, and Department of Homeland Security who requested and received a quote for $100 million for the anticipated purchase of two modules. With full knowledge of CILC&apos;s prowess in the law enforcement community and the legitimacy of their company, Denver federal prosecutors claimed that IRP an CILC were a scam and criminalized unpaid debts to staffing companies accumulated from temporary labor services provided for work on the software.  According to Judge Sarokin, the FBI investigation and raid on IRP&apos;s corporate office ruined IRP&apos;s sales efforts with its law enforcement agencies and made it impossible for the execs to pay their bills.  After destroying IRP&apos;s reputation with law enforcement, Denver federal prosecutor Matthew T. Kirsch claimed CILC was a scam used by the IRP execs to defraud staffing companies out of free labor.  Kirsch told the jury that the IRP executives had a better chance of winning the lottery than selling CILC to a large law enforcement agency.  Judge Sarokin also spoke about the absurd theory of the government to the Washington Post.<br />
<br />
"What amazed me about the case," Sarokin told the Post, "was the theory of the government that this program they were developing was a scam."  "All the proof in the case goes the opposite way," exclaimed Sarokin. "The men left their jobs to create the software, hired former FBI and immigration agents as consultants and MADE NO PROFIT from the scheme," explained Sarokin.  Judge Sarokin also noted that law enforcement agencies, IRP&apos;s sole customers, seem an unlikely target for an alleged scam.  Sarokin was so disturbed by the horrible injustice and harsh sentences of 7 to 11 years, he, as a playwright in his retirement, wrote a short dramatic play where professional actors portrayed the men as they discussed the facts of the case and government misconduct from prison.  Judge Sarokin&apos;s play, "The Race Card Face Up", is a must see by everyone and can be viewed on YouTube (<a class="extlink"  rel="nofollow noopener"  target="_blank"  title="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y94O5mMJqHU" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y94O5mMJqHU">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y94O5mMJqHU</a>).<br />
<br />
A Just Cause says Judge Sarokin has advanced the ball down the field to win justice for the IRP5 but believes NFL players advocating for a pardon may result in the winning touchdown.<br />
<br />
"Although many NFL players and Americans as a whole are rightly upset about the questionable killing of unarmed black men by some police officers, injustice comes in many forms, including racially-motivated convictions and unfair sentences like the IRP5," says Cliff Stewart of A Just Cause.  "NFL players shouldn&apos;t miss an opportunity to personally help end the pain and suffering of those whose federal criminal convictions or sentences may have been a result of implicit or explicit racial bias simply because President Trump made the offer to pardon," adds Stewart.  "President Trump showed his willingness to grant clemency to Alice Johnson, a black woman, from the advocacy of Kim Kardashian and I urge NFL players to do the same," says Stewart.  We must all be flexible and work together to fight against injustice wherever it occurs in our justice system," concludes Stewart.<br />
<br />
Four members of Congress have joined the fight for the IRP5 by sending a letter to the DOJ seeking answers about prosecutorial and judicial misconduct outlined in a comprehensive dossier compiled by A Just Cause (See congressional letter at <a class="extlink"  rel="nofollow noopener"  target="_blank"  title="http://bit.ly/2HuvgTc" href="http://bit.ly/2HuvgTc">http://bit.ly/2HuvgTc</a> and dossier at <a class="extlink"  rel="nofollow noopener"  target="_blank"  title="http://bit.ly/2wBaCyJ" href="http://bit.ly/2wBaCyJ">http://bit.ly/2wBaCyJ</a>).<br />
<br />
The IRP5 (David A. Banks, Clinton A. Stewart, Demetrius K. Harper, David A. Zirpolo and Kendrick Barnes) have been wrongly imprisoned at the federal prison camp in Florence, Colorado for nearly six years.</p><p>For more information on this press release visit: <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm">http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</a></p></div><h2>Media Relations Contact</h2><p>Lamont Banks<br />Executive Director<br />A Just Cause<br />Telephone: 855-529-4252<br />Email: <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/contact/999981">Click to Email Lamont Banks</a><br />Web: <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.a-justcause.com">http://www.a-justcause.com</a><br /></div><div><p><img src="https://cts.releasewire.com/v/?sid=999981&amp;s=f&amp;v=f" width="1" height="1" alt=""><span></span></p></div>]]></description>

McCurdy has two goals for his return to the triathlon. He wants to qualify for the Ironman World Championship and his wants to raise money to help fight human trafficking.<br />
<br />
McCurdy is a holistic cancer doctor and radiation oncologist in Austin (<a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="mccurdymd.com" href="https://www.mccurdymd.com/">mccurdymd.com</a>).  As a holistic practitioner, he encourages his patients to use physical activity as a tool to lessen side effects of cancer treatment and even to prevent recurrence.  "I hope to inspire patients to incorporate physical activity into life; even a little bit helps – a walk with friends, a swim at the pool."<br />
<br />
During the last decade, Dr. McCurdy has continued to run competitively while helping raise his young children. Now that they are older, he has recommitted to the Ironman, "Distance adds purpose to my life. It demands physical and psychological endurance and gives me a platform to raise money and awareness for causes I support."<br />
<br />
McCurdy is indeed using the upcoming competition to focus attention on an issue critical to Texas: human trafficking. He is working through United Against Human Trafficking, a non-profit established in 2005. UAHT leads a coalition of Houston-area non-profits, faith-based organizations, government agencies/entities, and others working to end human trafficking.<br />
<br />
As the fourth largest city in the country, Houston&apos;s air and sea ports, major freeways, rail systems, and its proximity to Mexico make it a "popular point of entry" for traffickers. According to the UAHT website, trafficking victims include young children, teenagers, men and women, U.S. citizens, and foreign immigrants who are subjected to force, fraud, or coercion for exploitation or forced labor. UAHT works to end human trafficking through awareness, education, and outreach.<br />
<br />
To prepare for the upcoming Ironman, McCurdy trains with <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Third Coast Training" href="https://thirdcoasttraining.com/">Third Coast Training</a>, one of five USA Triathlon Certified Performance Centers. "Matt is an elite athlete training for the toughest of all triathlons," says Johnny Shelby, Third Coast Training coach. <br />
<br />
Shelby knows. He trained McCurdy for the Ironman World Championship in Kona, Hawaii in 2006. At Third Coach Training, they support their athletes by taking the guess work out of training with performance testing in their training lab. "We look for fatigue markers and make sure athletes are building endurance and not being counter-productive," Shelby explained.<br />
<br />
Dr. McCurdy understands the value of training. In 2018 alone, he has been a high-performance competitor, taking Overall Masters Champ in the Austin 3M Half Marathon in January, the Austin Marathon in February, and the Capital 10,000 10K in March. McCurdy says he chose Third Coast Training to get him ready for the Ironman because "they will get me to the start line injury-free as fast as possible. Training with Third Coast is efficient and enjoyable."<br />
<br />
Anyone interested in supporting McCurdy&apos;s fundraising efforts should visit the UAHT website at <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="uaht.org/donate" href="https://uaht.org/donate/">uaht.org/donate</a>. He asks that all donations be sent directly to the charity. Donors can choose to designate his charity drive. <br />

      <title>Clients of WME Entertainment Asked to Depart and Decry Company for Alleged Abuse Against Women</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">WME Management Allegedly Retaliates Against Woman For Speaking Out Against Gender Abuse, says Advocacy Organization, A Just Cause</p><p>Denver, CO -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 11/13/2017 --  In the wake of the Harvey Weinstein, Roger Ailes and Bill O&apos;Reilly scandals, many high-profile women are now speaking out about sexual harassment, abuse and the overall marginalization of women by men in power.  Gender abuse has many faces and is not relegated to sexual harassment in the entertainment industry but runs rampant throughout corporate America and government.  Case and point: the plight of African-American corporate executive Tanique Wright of Colorado Springs, Colorado who is the Vice President of Human Resources for Professional Bull Riders, a WME Entertainment company.  <br />
<br />
A Just Cause first exposed some of Tanique&apos;s (pronounced "Tuh-neek") story of gender and racial discrimination in an October 2017 press release (www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-881753.htm).  Since then, WME management has allegedly ratcheted up the retaliation against her.   "Because Tanique isn&apos;t famous and doesn&apos;t have a huge microphone, WME management feels emboldened to double-down on their alleged abuse by victimizing her further through alleged retaliation," says Lamont Banks, Executive Director of A Just Cause.<br />
<br />
A Just Cause is calling on prominent entertainers (including men) who are clients of WME and others who despise the abuse of women, to hold WME management accountable by standing in solidarity with Tanique and using your voice to publicly speak out against WME on social media.  <br />
<br />
Missy Elliott, a WME client, was Billboard&apos;s 2015 Innovator of the Year and discussed her commitment to stand for women.  In Missy&apos;s 2015 remarks she said: "I stand here for all the women who been told you don&apos;t fit the mold. Look at me, I&apos;m here. I want to thank all those women who came before me and I don&apos;t know if y&apos;all know how important that is to me because they kicked down the door for me to be able to walk through."  Other prominent clients of WME include Rihanna, Steve Harvey, Drake, Denzel Washington and Terry Crews who has already taken to social media to discuss how WME executive Adam Venit groped him during a Hollywood function in 2016.  <br />
<br />
On October 10, 2017, Crew tweeted: "This whole thing with Harvey Weinstein is giving me PTSD.  Why? Because it happened to ME."  "Even with Crews speaking out about Venit&apos;s abuse, WME management continues allegedly tacitly promoting a culture of sexual, gender and racial abuse and allegedly retaliates against those like Ms. Wright who stands up for herself," adds Banks.<br />
<br />
"I hope we have reached a tipping point in America where women and men alike are not going to tolerate the continued exploitation of women, whether it&apos;s powerful men trying to extort cheap sexual thrills from women in exchange for advancing their careers or the demeaning and devaluing women based on their femininity and race by paying them less money for the same job they&apos;re performing as their male counterparts," adds Banks. "I hope other prominent clients of WME will use their fame and huge voices to #speak4Tanique and other women suffering sexual misconduct, pay inequality and retaliation for exposing misconduct and discrimination," says Banks.</p><p>For more information on this press release visit: <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm">http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</a></p></div><h2>Media Relations Contact</h2><p>Lamont Banks<br />Executive Director<br />A Just Cause<br />Telephone: 855-529-4252<br />Email: <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/contact/890802">Click to Email Lamont Banks</a><br />Web: <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.a-justcause.com">http://www.a-justcause.com</a><br /></div><div><p><img src="https://cts.releasewire.com/v/?sid=890802&amp;s=f&amp;v=f" width="1" height="1" alt=""><span></span></p></div>]]></description>

      <title>IndyCar Driver Gets Career Back on Track with Onefit Scleral Lenses</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p>Manchester, NH -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 10/26/2017 --  IndyCar driver <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Gabby Chaves" href="http://www.hardingracing.com/">Gabby Chaves</a>, #88 of Harding Racing, visited Brad Altman, OD, FSLS of <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Aprima: Consultants in Eye Health" href="http://aprimaeye.com/">Aprima: Consultants in Eye Health</a> in Mt. Juliet, TN, to be fit with his new <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Onefit MED scleral lenses" href="https://www.onefitlenses.com/">Onefit MED scleral lenses</a>, manufactured by <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Blanchard Contact Lenses" href="http://blanchardlab.com/">Blanchard Contact Lenses</a>.  Chaves, who has <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Keratoconus" href="https://www.nkcf.org/">Keratoconus</a>, has been wearing Onefit lenses since February 2017 and attributes the lenses with the best vision and eye comfort he has experienced in many years.  Chaves has had immense success with Onefit lenses thus far, having achieved better than 20/20 vision in both eyes, resulting in an unrestricted IndyCar license and his best ever finish in the 2017 <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Indianapolis 500" href="http://www.indycar.com/Schedule/2017/IndyCar-Series/Indianapolis-500">Indianapolis 500</a>.  When the advanced Onefit scleral lens design Onefit MED was released last month – specifically for highly irregular, medically indicated corneas like Chaves&apos; – he was quickly referred to Dr. Altman to be re-fit in the Onefit MED scleral lenses.  <br />
<br />
"The larger optical zone of the Onefit MED lens lends itself to greater peripheral views and even better lens stability - which will only benefit Chaves further in his racing career" said Dr. Brad Altman.  "Onefit and Onefit MED scleral lenses are an excellent, game-changing option for all athletes who need vision correction that will enhance and not hinder their performance."<br />
<br />
After being named Rookie of the Year in 2015, Chaves had problems with his vision deteriorating and was issued a restricted IndyCar license for the 2016 IndyCar season. He tried to make do with heavy prescription glasses and soft contact lenses – both of which were very uncomfortable for him when driving.  Even with the glasses and soft contacts, he was still very close to failing the yearly IndyCar eye exam for the 2017 season, and the IndyCar eye doctor expressed serious concerns.  So, in February 2017, Chaves found an eye care practitioner who performed a Corneal Cross-Linking procedure and prescribed him Onefit™ Scleral Lenses.   Chaves went on to take 9th place in the Indianapolis 500 three months later – his best ever finish in the Indianapolis 500. <br />
<br />
"When driving at 240mph, the last thing you can afford to worry about is eye comfort or fluctuating vision" said Gabby Chaves.  "I am very grateful to Onefit Scleral Lenses for helping to get my career back on track."<br />
<br />
Onefit™ scleral lenses are designed and manufactured by Blanchard Contact Lenses, a leading specialty contact lens designer and manufacturer in North America.  "We designed Onefit scleral lenses to have an array of benefits, including crystal clear vision, exceptional comfort and stability, and protection from environmental hazards, which make them the ideal choice for athletes and active individuals such as Gabby Chaves" said Jean Blanchard, President of Blanchard Contact Lenses.  "We look forward to the opportunity to bring Onefit lenses to other athletes, to help maximize their vision and performance" added Blanchard. <br />

      <title>Virtual Walk to Promote Real-World Change</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p>Harrisburg, PA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 04/24/2017 --  The <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="American Foundation for Children with AIDS" href="http://www.AFCAids.org">American Foundation for Children with AIDS</a> (AFCA), is launching a new, national initiative that aims to raise money and inspire change in an innovative way.<br />
<br />
The project—30000Miles—is a virtual walk through Africa which will take you from capital city to capital city of all the countries in mainland Africa, covering a total of 30,090 miles. You won&apos;t walk alone, though, as people from around the country will join you to complete this challenge in the shortest time possible. Participants have a minimum fundraising goal of $200. When a participant raises or donated a minimum of $200, they will receive a Nike gift card worth $50.<br />
<br />
How it works: Each participant will register themselves and their Fitbit or Garmin, or will sign up for a free app, provided by AFCA, that tracks steps taken. <br />
<br />
The tracker keeps a tally of the miles each participant walks in a day, and adds this number to the miles walked by every other participant. The more people who register, the faster we&apos;ll reach every capital city in mainland Africa!<br />
<br />
When: Registration is open from April 22. The walk itself begins on May 21, and the campaign ends whenever the collective goal of 30,090 miles is reached.<br />
<br />
Why participate? This project allows participants to provide critical aid to children without changing their own daily routine much at all—any number of steps taken in a day will help AFCA reach their goal and participants do not need to travel to participate. Anyone can help, wherever they live. Every step counts.<br />

      <title>Robert Zeuli Starts Indiegogo Campaign for the Creation of Sponsored-Athlete.com</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Sponsored-Athlete.com will be the first online marketplace for fitness enthusiasts to get sponsored by leading companies in the fitness industry. Founder Robert Zeuli is looking to raise $25,000 via Indiegogo for the successful completion of this venture.</p><p>Boston, MA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 09/28/2016 --  Robert Zeuli, the founder of Sponsored-Athlete.com, believes that sponsorship is an essential requirement for all athletes regardless of their level of expertise. However, over the years, the term &apos;sponsored athlete&apos; has remained confined only within the highest level of professional athletes. Sponsored-Athlete.com is an upcoming online marketplace dedicated to offering sponsorships to amateur athletes and fitness enthusiasts. <br />
<br />
A Boston-based start-up venture, Sponsored-Athlete.com functions as an agent for the athletes and the companies to help them obtain top-level sponsorships. Athletes can join for free, and build user profiles that will be seen by companies on the site.<br />
<br />
Companies will be able to view all the profiles and send contracts to the athletes of their choice. All sponsorship contracts are digitally signed and remain saved on the secure server of Sponsored-Athlete.com. A copy of the contract will be displayed on the personal profile of the athletes. The athletes will be able to accept their pending sponsorship requests by paying an annual fee of $49.99; a one-time fee for unlimited sponsorships. Sponsored-Athlete.com helps companies promote their products to new demographics by connecting them with athletes anywhere in the world. <br />
  <br />
"At Sponsored-Athlete.com, we are changing the game for sponsored athletes by not only giving amateur athletes the ability to grow but also the companies that sponsor them," says Robert Zeuli. <br />
<br />
Robert has just started an Indiegogo campaign to raise $25,000 for the making of Sponsored-Athlete.com. All funds raised from this campaign will be used to create a website capable of hosting thousands of athletes and companies alike. A series of lucrative perks are being offered to all backers.    <br />

      <title>Upon Launch of Limited Release True Barrel Aged Rum, AROME Spirits Corporation Partners with Four-Time PGA Tour Winner Brian Gay</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">AROME Spirits announces its new multi-year partnership with PGA golfer, Brian Gay. The company has launched "The Best Sipping Spirit in the World" an extremely rare, limited quantity, 28 year aged, Cuban Style Rum in 2016.</p><p>Jupiter, FL -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 08/31/2016 --  After a lengthy vetting process, AROME Spirits is proud to announce the finalization of a multi-year endorsement agreement with PGA tour winner, Brian Gay. Brian will be working to promote AROME and the exclusive nature and limited availability of the most unique aged sipping spirit to hit the global market.<br />
<br />
AROME, a Florida based luxury spirits company, specializes in unique, hard-to-find aged sipping spirits. In the third quarter of this year, AROME 28 Rum, 500 Founders Reserve bottles of an extremely rare 28 year barrel-aged sipping rum from Panama was officially launched. Due to the lack of True aged sipping rum availability around the globe, three and a half years were spent sourcing and developing AROME 28 Rum to insure that quality, blend, and presentation meet the standards envisioned for this luxury sipping spirit.<br />
<br />
Features of AROME include a French designed heavy glass decanter and French designed and produced thick glass closure with 23mm natural cork. The bottles also come in an elegant, white, quilted leather gift box, which has been crafted by hand. Each numbered and serialized bottle will be available for $595 while the supply lasts.<br />
<br />
AROME 28 is a True Aged Rum. This means that the age statement on the bottle must read the youngest Rum used in the proprietary blend. Further, AROME&apos;s flavor is achieved by the Rum Master&apos;s ability to blend pure rum exclusive of additives.<br />
<br />
Andrew Troyer, Founder and CEO of AROME, is excited about the partnership of AROME with Brian Gay, as the brand ambassador.  Andrew stated, "Brian&apos;s story speaks to our own core values of success and giving back. He arose from humble beginnings to not only be a successful celebrity PGA golfer; he has also now raised over a million dollars for the Florida Children&apos;s Hospital."<br />
<br />
Brian Gay was inducted into the University of Florida&apos;s Hall of Fame in 2010 winning Four SEC Team Championships. To date, Brian is a four time PGA Tour Champion and 1 of just 5 players in the world to win a PGA Tournament by double digits. His annual celebrity invitational raises funds for the Florida Hospital for Children. In just the span of two years, over $1.2 million was raised to benefit the Walt Disney Pavilion at the Florida Hospital for Children.<br />
<br />
Gay stated, "I am honored to partner with AROME. I choose to align myself with those that demand the very best. AROME&apos;s uncompromising approach aligns them with the finest luxury hotels, country clubs, gourmet dining, and celebrities and athletes. I find in my profession that &apos;in order to lead…sometimes you have to stand alone.&apos;"<br />
<br />
During 2016, Brian will be part of AROME global marketing campaigns as well as VIP tasting events with select clientele.<br />
<br />
Troyer added, "AROME is dedicated to making the best products in the world and will never compromise on quality. Brian demonstrates tireless efforts to refine his game, and remarkable philanthropic efforts to help those in need."</p><p>For more information on this press release visit: <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm">http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</a></p></div><h2>Media Relations Contact</h2><p>Andrew Troyer<br />Founder<br />AROME Spirits Corp<br />Telephone: 561-517-3616<br />Email: <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/contact/718987">Click to Email Andrew Troyer</a><br />Web: <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.rumAROME.com">http://www.rumAROME.com</a><br /></div><div><p><img src="https://cts.releasewire.com/v/?sid=718987&amp;s=f&amp;v=f" width="1" height="1" alt=""><span></span></p></div>]]></description>
