Greensboro Walk Recap 2010

A brisk and sunny morning on March 27, 2010 marked the day for the 2010 Greensboro Walk to Defeat ALSTM.  However, the weather did not keep the largest crowd in the history of the Greensboro Walk  away. Over 950 walk participants and volunteers gathered at beautiful Center City Park in downtown Greensboro to celebrate their efforts to fight this terrible disease.
The morning festivities kept everyone’s mind off of the cool weather. Once again we were honored to have Leigh Brock of WFMY News 2 emcee the event.  In addition, walkers enjoyed live music from Floydz Circle Band, fun activities for children, and great food!
Attendance was not the only record breaker that day, to date the 2010 Greensboro Walk has raised
$118,078.78 and counting! This is the largest amount of money raised at the Greensboro Walk! Congratulations and thank you to all those who participated.
 We couldn’t have asked for a better turnout. We hope the day created a great memory for all those who attended and most importantly help spread the awareness of ALS! If you are interested in joining the 2011 Greensboro Walk Planning Committee or would like to volunteer for the walk day next year please contact Amy Sullivan at Amy@CatfishChapter.org.
