Epilepsy Awareness Walk

What do you think? (No Comments) June 19, 2009 at 3:55PM

Rain or not, the park will be busy tomorrow.  In addition to the Shade Plaza festivities, you will likely spot lots of folks walking the loop around the lake.

These fantastic people are walking for a cause: epilepsy awareness.

Northwest Run/Walk for Epilepsy is the Epilepsy Foundation Northwest‘s annual epilepsy awareness walk. Now in its 6th year, the walk raises money for EFNW programs and services and increases public understanding about the disorder.
