Wake Up and Walk

by Katie Frederick

The Walk of 10,000 Steps is the theme for the 2016 ACB Brenda Dillon Memorial Walk, taking place Sunday morning, July 3, during the ACB conference and convention in downtown Minneapolis, Minn. The walk will take place in and around the Hyatt Regency Hotel and surrounding skywalks. The route is approximately one mile in length; if you wish to walk 10,000 steps, you will need to walk the route approximately four times to achieve your goal.
 
Wondering how you can participate in the walk? To sign up, visit the 2016 walk web site, http://acb.donorpages.com/2016ACBWalk/. Don’t have access to a computer? No problem! Give the ACB Minnesota office a call at (612) 332-3242, and they will be glad to assist you. Not able to attend the conference and convention in person this year? Virtual walkers are welcome!
 
Do you belong to a special-interest or state affiliate and want to raise money for your affiliate and help ACB too? If so, encourage members to form a team; up to 50% of the funds received through donations to the team can go back to the affiliate. Last year, the Florida Hurricanes raised $10,000. Will your team blow them away this year?
 
Let’s walk and work together to raise funds for ACB. Time’s running out, so don’t delay! Sign up for the 2016 ACB Brenda Dillon Memorial Walk today!
