TeamEmerge and the Relay Across America

TeamEmerge and the Relay Across America were birthed out of love for my niece, Amanda Coleman. A year ago, she suffered a horrible car accident and was in a coma for nearly 12 months. Through the grace of God, an amazing fight to live, the wonderful team at T.I.R.R.

Hospital in Houston,Tx and her loving family and friends, Mandy has managed to emerge from her coma and is on her way back to full recovery.


We at TeamEmerge desire to live and reflect the same overcoming spirit that Mandy displays daily. We are a team of 6 riders from Spain and the U.S. and our primary goal is to train for the July, 2016 race ahead. We’ll pedal 2,250 MilesForMandy beginning at the border of Canada in Vermont and crossing the finish line at T.I.R.R. Hospital in Houston, Texas where Mandy will be waiting for us.

We are pedaling to raise funds for her and to bring awareness to those who are struggling with depression, trauma and recovery due to brain injury and tragedy.

We’d love to hear from you at:   cindy@capitalgateway.org 
or by phone at (917) 538-6611. 
Thank you and may God give you strength to keep pedaling.
Sincerely, Cindy Vermilion
Director of TeamEmerge / Organizer of The Relay Across America.
