No, it’s not Spring yet….but, it’s never too early to start promoting the MS Walk. Usually the walk occurs in April, but this year the Midland MS Walk is on Saturday, May 1.
The SPACE team has been very supportive of this fundraising event and I’m looking forward to another successful walk. Those team members who don’t participate in the walk, financially support those who do. Those who do walk bring spouses, children, wagons, and strollers. It’s a company-wide, family-oriented event capped by a group breakfast afterward.
The Midland MS Walk is only 3 miles long, but it is the perfect length for families. It winds through the historical district and includes a portion of the Rail Trail. There are 600 Walks in the U.S. each year. The National MS Society also promotes “Challenge Walks” that are 2 or 3 day events covering 30-50 miles. Maybe next year?
Stay tuned for updates as we get closer to the Walk date.
