Lending a hand to help combat neuromuscular disease, ERA Landmark Real Estate is hosting the MDA Agents of Hope Carnival at Bogert Park in Bozeman on August 13, 2011, from 1 pm-5 pm. The community is invited to come to play old-fashioned carnival games, win prizes, listen to music, enjoy food, and play on fun inflatable activities. Admission to the park is free and tickets will be sold to participate in the games and activities. All of the proceeds raised at the Carnival benefit the Montana Chapter of the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA).

In addition to ERA Landmark, American Land Title Company and Security Title are major sponsors of the Carnival include. There are over 20 other local businesses that are contributing to the event by providing games, prizes, food, music, and volunteers.

The funds raised at this event will provide much-needed services to MDA clients throughout the state of Montana. MDA prides itself on the quality of clinics, free of charge to clients; wheelchair and leg brace assistance; diagnosis of diseases; support groups; research and an awesome summer camp for Montana children.

"Sponsoring this carnival is just one more way to give back to the community and show our support for MDA," said Robyn Erlenbush, Broker/Owner of ERA Landmark Real Estate. “Every contribution, no matter how small, can make all the difference in helping researchers to find a cure. Plus, we are looking forward to a sunny day at the park where we can all be a kid again."

ERA Landmark has offices in Bozeman, Big Sky, Livingston, and Clyde Park, and has raised more than $45,000 locally in the past 6 years. The Carnival is one of hundreds of events organized by ERA real estate members nationwide to benefit MDA. Since 1977, ERA brokers and sales associates have collectively raised more than $30 million to fund research and provide services to help the more than one million Americans affected by neuromuscular diseases. The sole corporate sponsor of MDA from the real estate industry, ERA Real Estate is among the top corporate contributors to the organization each year.
