We were contacted to help cheer on the teams participating in the Multiple Sclerosis Walk. This was held in the same park that hosts the breast cancer walk in the fall. I arrived and met with our contact, and went over the plan for the morning. I met up with Chris and his son and we changed in the parking lot then made our way to the events starting point. We stopped and took lots of photos with adults, children, and even a few dogs. Samantha met up with us after a little bit, and we continued to pose for photos until all the teams began on there walks. after a few had started to return, we talked to the host, and thanked her for the invite. We then had to roll out, as all of us were continuing the trooping gauntlet that the first weekend in May has become
