Get your walking shoes on and begin training for the 2010 ACB Walk. It will be held on Saturday, July 10 at 8 a.m. at Arizona Mills Mall. This is an air-conditioned facility. Each lap around the mall is about one mile. You can walk one lap or up to three laps around the mall which would be about a 5K walk. This is strictly a walk, not a run, because of the liability issue which is due to the fact that there are different walking surfaces throughout the mall. Arizona Mills Mall is approximately a half-hour away, so we'll be busing participants to and from the walk site.
Last year we had only 47 participants. We want to do much, much better this year! We will officially kick off this event at the midyear presidents' meeting in February and hope to have many of you sign up then. The entry fee will be $25 and every penny will go to ACB.
For more information about the walk, contact Dena Wilson in the national office at (202) 559-2045 or dwilson@acb.org, or contact Dan Dillon at (615) 874-1223 or dan.dillon@bellsouth.net.
