Please join us as we walk to raise funds for Turn The Corner Foundation, and help raise lyme disease awareness in the California Bay Area. The walkathon will be held on Saturday November 7th at the beautiful Shoreline Park in Mountain View, walk starts at 11am, registration begins at 10am.
This will be a family friendly day with activities for the whole family, raffle, food, and fun (sorry, no dogs allowed at Shoreline). The walk is a 2k/4k walk, with shorter routes available for anyone who cannot walk as far (or feel free to register and join the fun without walking if you want).
Shoreline park has beautiful wide flat paths, well groomed (no overhanging brush), and is just a lovely location to spend the day for a very good cause.
To register for the walk, please go to http://www.firstgiving.com/createfootprintsttc - you can optionally set up a personal fundraising page as well, and/or start your own walk team, or you can join one of the existing walk teams there.
For more details on the walkathon, please go to http://www.mylymemission.com - our flyer is also available for download there if you would like to help get the word out about the walkathon.
Please help us make our first annual walkathon a huge success by joining us for a fun filled day for a very good cause! Donations of any size are greatly appreciated as well, thank you! -karen

Giving this a bump - and wanted to mention that we are making this a very fun and kid friendly day, with a bounce house, facepainter, games for the kids, etc. Shoreline also has boat rentals available, which is a fun thing to do after the event Posted by cs (Member # 15270) on :
