Caleb was honored to attend a Nashville Sounds game!! While he was there, he met the players, took pictures, and threw out the opening pitch! He loves spreading awareness wherever possible.

Clinical Trials
​
​Caleb is blessed to have been part of several clinical trials thru the MDA clinic at Vanderbilt Hospital in Nashville, TN. Research dollars help fund these trials in an effort to slow the disease and one day provide a cure.
MDA Summer Camp
​
For one week each summer, kids age 7-18 with all forms of muscular dystrophy get to attend an adaptive summer camp at no cost. These children are able to do a seemingly endless list of activities they otherwise could not physically do. For the past 5 years, Caleb has gotten to let loose and have fun in a medically safe environment and has made lifelong friendships.
Shamrocks
​​
Lowes, Kroger, Penn Station Subs, several gas stations and a list of other businesses sell Shamrocks each March to raise funds and awareness for muscular dystrophy. Caleb goes around to these places to speak to the employees and thank them for their efforts. He also holds his own shamrock fundraiser at his school each year. ​This is a very rewarding event as we are blessed to be surrounded by people with such giving spirits.
Music City Muscle Walk
​
Each year, the culmination of all Team Caleb's fundraising efforts are celebrated at the Music City Muscle Walk in Nashville. Teams from across middle Tennessee gather to celebrate their progress, meet new faces, and gain new information. These awesome teams along with Team Caleb help Nashville give a voice to those affected by neuromuscular disease!! Together we can make a difference!
Music City MDA Gala
​
​In October, MDA holds a gala to team celebrities with persons with neuromuscular disease. The theme changes each year. This event has been a great success and is also loads of fun. Last year alone, the event raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for research and treatments.
Make a Muscle, Make a Difference
​
Caleb and his family have been blessed to visit several Disney locations. Once on a Make A Wish cruise to the Bahamas, once to Disneyland, and once to Disney World. Even when Caleb is on vacation, he and Jessalyn can't seem to take a break from spreading cheer and Duchenne awareness.
Mount Everest
​
In an epic partnership with alot of other duchenne families, Duchenne activist, Chris Balch journeyed to Mount Everest. He carried with him the names of duchenne boys who are fighting and the names of those who have passed. When he reached base camp with his climbing crew, he planted the flag so that all who visited would see. He donated the money he raised to the MDA. Now, in a way, Caleb has visited Mount Everest. Thank you, Chris.
