Team Hoyt
The goal of Team Hoyt is to integrate the physically challenged into everyday life. One way to
accomplish this is to educate the able-bodied, making them more aware of the issues that the
disabled face every day. Another is by actively helping the disabled to participate in activities
that would otherwise be inaccessible to them. Team Hoyt targets both of these areas.

Team Blazeman
So Others May Live
Despite 20 million people dying from ALS since 1869, there hasn't been any significant effort to treat or cure
this disease. Jon and ALS patients everywhere are basically offered the same treatment options as Lou
Gehrig in 1939. Without raising awareness and funding, ALS will not receive the research efforts necessary
to find a cure and will continue to strike down every person who is diagnosed.
