Ironman
“You are an Ironman.”  That’s what Kurt Schmelz will hear on September 13, 2009, when he crosses the finish line at the Wisconsin Ironman Triathlon.  Kurt, a graduate student in the UW-Madison Communication Disorders Department, is competing in the Ironman Triathlon for the Wisconsin Chapter APDA. 
Ironman sponsor Janus created the Janus Charity Challenge, a unique fundraising program designed
to add depth and meaning to an athlete’s Ironman experience while making a world of difference in
the lives of others. 

Please take the opportunity to support your family member or friend with Parkinson’s disease or the
general Parkinson’s community with a donation to Kurt in his Ironman challenge.  Help Kurt meet his
goal of $1000.  If Kurt can raise at least $750, Janus will match it thus meaning your money will
double.

Online donations may be made here.  For those who prefer to pay by check, you may send your
donation to Wisconsin Chapter APDA, P.O. Box 7513, Madison, WI 53707, indicating it is for Kurt Schmelz/Ironman Charity Challenge.
The Wisconsin Chapter is honored and very grateful to Kurt for competing on our behalf.
