Grand Trustee Rall to Ride For A Cure
On June 14, 2012, Grand Trustee Darrell Rall will set off on a journey like no other,
known as “Iron Eagle: 2012 Mobilizing to Defeat Diabetes.” Aiming to break a world
record for timed endurance on a motorcycle, Rall will attempt to ride 25,000 miles
in 25 days – all to help find a cure for diabetes. The grueling task will benefit
The Fraternal Order of Eagles Diabetes Research Center.
The Fraternal Order of Eagles will sponsor Iron Eagle, which is currently scheduled
to wrap up July 8 when Rall arrives at the 2012 International Convention in Grand
Rapids, Mich.

remarkable feat.
Updates From the Road
Iron Eagle Makes Wave at Diabetes Educators Convention
Iron Eagle: 2012 Mobilizing to Defeat Diabetes made its way to Las Vegas, Aug. 4-6,
for the American Association of Diabetes Educators Convention. The gathering was
focused on sharing information regarding recent breakthroughs in diabetes education.
Grand Trustee Darrell Rall hosted a booth and was on hand for the event to spread
the word about his groundbreaking motorcycle ride planned for next summer. Photos
of the booth space are included here.
“This convention was a perfect way to build awareness for the ride,” Darrell said.
“But our visibility at the event shined a bright light on the F.O.E.’s commitment
to finding a cure for diabetes.” All donations from the ride will benefit The Fraternal
Order of Eagles Diabetes Research Center at the University of Iowa.
ESPN Radio, broadcasting live from the convention center, brought Rall in to talk
and inform the rest of the Las Vegas community of his monumental feat for diabetes.
With buzz for the event building by the minute, the road to finding a cure gets
shorter each day.
Stay tuned for more updates as Darrell continues to prepare for the ride of his
life – a ride which holds great promise for the Fraternal Order of Eagles, as well
as all those who suffer the devastating effects of diabetes.
