Thank you , Holly!

I participated in WalkAmerica a few years ago. (It was the year it rained, so half the course was washed out.) They do an outstanding job!

I'll be in touch....

Jill,
Let me make a few phone calls and get back to you on it. I do know that their big event which is walkamerica is starting up and the first one in Phoenix is on April 1st so let me ask how we can advertise at that.
If you don't hear from me in a week please feel free to remind me by emailing me at hobear456@cs.com

Hi Holly: That sounds wonderful....both the mod contact and your work with NICU support!

If you have an opportunity to talk about the PF WAT, please do. We would love to have our info going out to their WAT participants. How would be go about doing this?

Is there anything we can do on a state level to support their efforts?

Holly, thanks for your help!

Hi AZ Members:

The 2006 WAT is approaching and we need publicity! We would love to reach out to the public and have walkers from outside the PF join us on May 6th.

A few members have suggested we reach out to the March of Dimes and try to gain publicity at their walk. Does anyone have a connection with the MoD in AZ? Any ideas?
