“Show Your Scary Smile” at Wisconsin State Fair for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society!

Vlad the Vampire appears at "fang-tastic" event August 6^th to greet children

Vlad the Vampire will greet children as they stop at the LLS exhibit, and will hand out vampire teeth to all of the children. Volunteers will also apply Cancer Bites temporary tattoos to guests’ faces, and take their picture in the Shutter Box photo booth, where they can "Show Us Your Scary Smile!" There will also be an opportunity to color a fun vampire picture as a take-home.

"What a fun thing for children to do while they are at State Fair on August 6^th – it’s going to be a "fang-tastic" event for both children and their parents," said Ann Marie Frakes, Executive Director of LLS’ Wisconsin Chapter.
