May is Lyme Disease Awareness Month

May is Lyme Disease Awareness Month. Activists throughout the United States use it as an opportunity to organize walks, 5K runs, showings of the Lyme documentary Under Our Skin, and other events to help educate the public and/or raise funds for research. Some write letters to their local newspapers, share information via Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest, or tell their story via a YouTube video. Some work with their city, county, or state officials to obtain proclamations of Lyme Disease Awareness Month—which can result in media coverage.

Welcome to the Average Joe Weekly blog. This is basically my place on the web where I can help spread some of the knowledge that I have accumulated over the years. I served 10+ years in the Marine Corps on Active Duty, but that was some 25 years ago.
