I spy Enjoy Life...
at Kane County Cougar's 2nd Peanut-Free Night It was nice to see familiar faces from last year's game and meet all the new folks that stopped by. Thanks for coming out and showing your support! We hope you enjoyed all our yummy peanut-free treats.
at the Durham's Bulls Peanut-Free Zone A local support group, NC Faces, has worked with the Bulls to help make such games possible. Thank you NC Faces and Durham Bulls for working together on such a wonderful event. Enjoy Life was happy to be a part of it and was able to give yummy, nut-free snacks to all our peanut-free fans.
at Iowa's Clinton Lumberkings Peanut-Free Night Contact your local minor league team to ask them to consider doing a peanut-free night. Lumberking's management worked with Christie Campie, whose seven year old son, Eric, has a severe peanut allergy to learn how they can support peanut-free fans at their ballpark. Many thanks to the Lumberkings for hosting a great peanut-free ball game that everyone could enjoy!
at West Michigan's Whitecaps Peanut-Free Night Thank you Whitecaps for a safe, fun-filled peanut-free game everyone could enjoy!
at Whole Foods Milwaukee's Kids Fest
at FAAN's Walk for Food Allergy: Moving Towards a Cure - Nationwide
A great time was had by all. We gave away kazoos, which kids of all ages enjoyed, as well as scrumptious samples of our trail mix, snack bars and cookies. We also passed out Perky’s nut-and gluten-free Perky O’s. All yum! All smiles! A big thanks to those of you who stopped by to say “hi” and to those of you who wanted to learn more about our products.
at Whole Foods Market Flavor Fest - Chicago, IL The Enjoy Life crew was on hand to give out samples of our cookies and snack bars to the hungry crowd. The response was so good that we actually ran out of samples on Sunday afternoon! In all, we handed out 500 kazoos, 8,000 free samples and 5,000 coupons...whew, we were sure tired after that Many Chicago-based Enjoy Life fans visited our booth to say "hey" and ask "what's new". We love meeting our loyal consumers and appreciate you taking the time to stop by!
at Kane County Cougar's Peanut-Free Night: Part II - Geneva, IL
Who said 3rd time's a charm? What about second! This was Enjoy Life's 2nd year supporting the Cougar's Peanut-Free Night and boy, what a night! More fans showed up than last year (yeah!) - we like to think the good news is spreading! Our Enjoy Life team was on hand to pass out our snack-tacular peanut-free snacks, which brought lots of smiles. Everyone, especially the peanut-free fans, had a blast! 
Ethan and his Dad (who helped bring about the
1st peanut-free night!) are back for seconds!
Enjoy Life took part in the Durham Bull's 6th annual Peanut-Free Zone. USA Baseball took on the Chinese Taipei and peanut-free fans were able to sit back, relax and enjoy the game in their dedicated peanut-free zone. 
Jane (an avid fan of Enjoy Life) with her
son - thanks for all your support!
Enjoy Life helped support the Clinton Lumberkings in their first peanut-free baseball game! Hooray! Christie Campie and Kami Huizenga, who both have children with food allergies, handed out our yummy cookies, snack bars and trail mix. They also helped spread the word about food allergies to local newspapers and television stations. A special thanks to you!
Christie's son Eric
Enjoy Life sponsored the Whitecap's first peanut-free night game. Yippee! We threw the first pitch, had a radio interview and passed lots of yummy treats to all the fans! We even won over our peanut-eating friends!
Enjoy Life supported Whole Food's Kids fest in Milwaukee. It was a fun-filled day with games, music and more! And of course safe eats for everyone! We passed out samples of our allergy-friendly and gluten-free snack bars. Folks were happy to have a safe, healthy snack. 
Sunday, December 2nd marked the final FAAN walk for 2007. As a national sponsor, Enjoy Life has attended twenty walks nationwide. We’ve met allergen-free folks near and far, bumping into many Enjoy Life fans! In fact, we meet a little fellow who packed his very own Snickerdoodles as his safe snack for the walk! Good thinking ; ) 
Despite a really wet and muddy start, a great time was had by all at Flavor Fest. The event was held at Jonquil Park on August 24th and 25th in Chicago's Lincoln Park neighborhood.
The weather cooperated this time and Enjoy Life joined in the festivities at peanut-free night at the ballpark. A great crowd was there to cheer the Cougars on to victory and the Enjoy Life team handed out hundreds of samples and coupons to fans.
at Kane County Cougar's Peanut-Free Night: Part I - Geneva, IL
Finally, a baseball game without the peanuts! Enjoy Life was at the ballpark to hand out peanut-free snacks but unfortunatley the game was cancelled due to thunderstorms.
Enjoy Life fans: Left, Ethan (right) and his brother gobble down a caramel apple snack bar. Ethan has one every morning for breakfast! Right, a super smiley Snickerdoodle fan club.
at Atlanta's Celiac Food Fair- Atlanta, GA
We introduced all of our yummy treats, including our two newest cookies, and just so happened to make lots of new friends. Folks were so excited by our smile-good foods that they ate their way through our samples. Yea!
Jessica Zombek helped introduce our products.
at Natural Products EXPO West 2007 - Anaheim, CA
We introduced our two newest, super scrumptious cookies to natural food retailers from across the U.S. in early March. Our Happy Apple™ and Lively Lemon cookies are bursting with flavor and are sure to become a new favorite. We hosted a fun "cookie time" break during the show complete with loads of cookies, funny hats and our biggest fan, Cookie Monster. Look for them on store shelves soon!
