The 1st National Multiple Birth Awareness Family Festival was a giant success!

Thank you to everyone that came out to the Multiples Family Festival in Denver, Colorado yesterday (Apr 19)  to celebrate the launch of the very first Multiple Birth Awareness Month!  Close to 400 people came to this free event presented by the National Organization of Mothers of Twins Clubs, Inc (NOMOTC) and in conjunction with TWINS™ Magazine and the Fetal Hope Foundation.

There was a twins contest for most look-a-like twins and least look-a-like twins, games, prizes, food, a Multiples Marketplace and the TWINS™ Magazine Cover Photo Contest where we had 37 sets of multiples meet our photographer and get their photo taken for our cover contest.  It will certainly be extremely hard to select our Summer 09 cover models among all of the photos we received across the country and the ones we took yesterday at our event.

It was amazing to see how many families came out to support this fun, family festival and we encourage everyone to particpate in next year's festivities in a new location...  We are very honored to have partnered with these two outstanding organizations that support families with mulitples and look forward to continuing our partnership with them as we move into the future.

Sincerely,
