Ronald McDonald Care Mobile® at the State Fair





I love the State Fair and was thrilled to be in the parade with the Ronald McDonald Care Mobile this year. What a wonderful parade! The Ronald McDonald House Care Mobile was at the fair with representatives from the House both August 26th and September 2nd. The fans waved and cheered enthusiastically as we walked and drove by. The bands and various acts who are in the parade were really fun to see, too.

The Ronald McDonald Care Mobile provides mobile dental care for uninsured and under-insured children and youth in the 14-county metro area. In just a year since inception, over 1,000 children have received dental care. Many of the children had never been to the dentist before.

BMW of Minnetonka, the Valet Sponsor of our annual gala, Fam Glam, provided a BMW Convertible so the Williams, a current family who are staying at the House while their daughter is receiving treatment, could ride in the Fair parade. Molly, Luke and Jean had a great time waving to the crowd as they rode in the convertible. I have to admit - I loved driving the BMW, too! Thanks, BMW for your continuing support of RMHC-UM families.
