About the Hosts:

Robert (Bob) Hoff - : Bob Hoff Rocks. Need residential or commercial roofing? Use the best. Commercial and Residential Roofing Experts since 1976. They are, and always have been, family owned and operated. The level of quality and reliability they give, according to their clients, makes them stand out as a leader in the industry. Their techniques are unique and their customers benefit from the results!

Amanda Bradham-Little: Diagnosed on World MS Day in 2019, Amanda’s first symptom (Optic Neuritis) developed the day before her first day at her new job Pace Properties/Avison Young. With her world rocked, she reached out to the National MS Society as a lifeline and found the resources and connections she needed to find help and carve out a new path. Determined not to sit on the sidelines of illness, Amanda became involved with the NMSS by joining her local chapter's Walk MS committee and forming a Walk MS team, and in October 2020, she joined the NMSS Gateway Chapter’s Board of Trustees. Since 2020, Amanda's Out Pace MS Walk team has raised more than $165,000, with Amanda raising $112,000. She and her husband Jason have one five-year-old Shih Tzu named Leo Little and think Bar K is better than Disney World.

Tori McLeod: In February of 2021, Tori received a call from her ENT doctor after having her sinuses scanned. The doctor told her the radiologist saw abnormalities in her brain he thought were lesions and could be associated with MS. She went to a neurologist and was diagnosed in March of 2021. Tori and her parents spent a lot of time as she was growing up going to different doctors and specialists to try to understand the pains that she was feeling. After multiple surgical procedures, with no change in how she felt, the MS diagnosis finally gave them an answer. The first year of the diagnosis was the hardest, and Tori was looking for a support group and reconnected with Amanda who she knew through working in the event industry. Tori joined the Walk MS committee and formed her own walk team in St. Louis and Kansas City. She and her husband Dylan live in Shaw with their new baby boy and are regulars at Bar K with their four-year-old pitty mix named Mila.

Stephanie Eichmeyer: A fierce supporter of her MS Warrior friends, Stephanie is proud to raise awareness and donations for this important cause. Stephanie and her employer, Brinkmann Constructors, began supporting Walk MS several years ago and are passionate about helping advance MS research and finding a cure. Stephanie and her three-year-old blue merle Aussiedoodle Winnie and one-year-old red merle mini Aussiedoodle Wallie are Bar K members. You'll find Winnie running around the turf at full speed, asking for pets from all the hoomans, or atop The Mound where she can keep an eye out for her friends Leo and Mila. You'll find Wallie on her Mom's lap or in little dog city where she thrives.

This event is rain or shine!
