Walk day was so much fun! I only got a couple of pictures so I will try to post some more when I get them from my fellow planners. Above is k's krew! We were a small team this year but we were a mighty one :)
Evan sponsored the walk. He has been working on his own business part time. Check him out: www.evanscoresby.com
We had over 300 walkers come and participate. There was such a positive energy at the park. We had a fun program with a professional entertainer-- Marky the funny guy who does tricks. And of course we had good food :) We had several teams, including large teams that were named after one baby in a family born deaf. The walk unifies group from all across the hearing loss spectrum. So fun! We raised about $20,000. Whoo hoo!! Half of it goes to National HLAA for their programs and advocacy (they are the ones that got cell phones and tv's accessible to us). The rest goes for walk expenses and local needs. We provide assistive listening devices to those who can not afford them (those little suckers are pricey!) and other ways to help people remain connected to the hearing world. Thanks to everyone for your support!!
