Martin Wallem ALS Foundation

What a great night!
Last night the Martin Wallem ALS Foundation held our first Bingo fundraiser at the 1764 Sports Bar & Grill in Lincoln — and it was a lot of fun.
Renate, Cara, and Susan teamed up as bingo callers, and the room was full of laughter, friendly competition, and plenty of “BINGO!” moments.
Several attendees had been touched by ALS or remembered Martin from his adventures here in the White Mountains. It meant a lot to bring people together in support of ALS awareness and families facing this disease.
This was our first bingo fundraiser, but it definitely won’t be our last!
Thank you to everyone who came out and to the 1764 team for hosting us.

Putting a real face on this disease. Eric is just a few years older than Martin was when he passed.

“I feel like maybe a couple more months and I won’t have my left hand either,” he told Diane Sawyer.
