Staff Report

Bert’s Big Adventure, a nonprofit organization that provides a magical, all-expenses-paid, five-day journey to Walt
Disney World® for children with chronic and terminal illnesses and their families, is excited to share a BIG announcement! After careful consideration and sorting through hundreds of applications, the Bert’s Big Adventure selection committee has chosen 14 children and their families to travel to Walt Disney World® in February 2015.

One of the 2015 Bert’s Big Adventure recipients is Lake Bozman, an eight-year-old boy from Kennesaw who is battling Acute Myeloid Leukemia. Lake, his mom Anna, dad Travis, brother Trindon, and sister Cambree, were given the good news by beloved Disney characters like Elsa, Buzz Lightyear, Robin Hood, and Cinderella, who all showed up unannounced at the Bozman home on Dec. 18.

“I know I have said it a million times but thank you to everyone for all of the support and amazing things that y’all have done for our family!!,” Anna wrote to Lake’s Facebook support group the night of Dec. 18. “We know we are so truly blessed!! I am determined to not let cancer keep us from living and enjoying life with Lake!!

“We are so thrilled to have chosen 14 wonderful children and their families to join us for this trip,” says Bert’s Big Adventure Founder and The Bert Show host Bert Weiss. “The trip will be an adventure they will never forget and we feel so honored to be sharing this amazing experience with them and providing the opportunity to be making their days a little brighter.”

There are many opportunities to help support Bert’s Big Adventure and this year’s 2015 trip. Monetary donations can be made at www.bertsbigadventure.org/donate and a wish list of travel essentials for the families, both small and large items, can be found at www.bertsbigadventure.org/donate/wish-list.

A send-off celebration for Lake and the other winners and their families will be held in Atlanta on Feb. 19.
