American Diabetes Association - KMSP-TV

FOX 9 is proud to support the American Diabetes Association!  

Minnesotans are increasingly feeling the effects of diabetes as thousands of people suffer from the disease, and many others may have diabetes and may not know it! It's estimated that 1 in 3 Americans will have diabetes by the year 2050 if the disease continues at its current rate.

That is why the American Diabetes Association's Minneapolis-Saint Paul office is so committed to educating the public about how to stop diabetes and support those living with the disease.

UPCOMING EVENTS

Join us on June 1, 2013 for the Twin Cities Tour de Cure!

Fully supported cycling routes: 7, 18, 27, 45, 62, and 100 miles.  We offer MN's only urban century ride! 

At the finish enjoy lunch, live music, vendor village, massages, and more!  There's even a beer garden for adults and a kid's zone for the little ones.  Riders with diabetes can choose to be recognized as "Red Riders" and receive VIP treatment, including a free Red Rider cycling jersey just for riding with us.

Tour de Cure is more than just a ride; it's an experience.  We're on a million dollar mission to change the pace of diabetes and we're having a blast while we do it.  Come see why our motto is: Ride. Party. Stop Diabetes.
