To all my friends. I know this is off topic but I want to make sure that you save the date if you can :smile:
Please join me, my kids and hopefully 2000 other people in Edison NJ on Sunday June 4th for the 5th Annual MICHELLE OFFSIE MEMORIAL WALK 4 HOPE to Cure Breast Cancer. We have raised over $250,000 in the past four years for Breast Cancer Research and this year we are trying to raise more than $150,000. The reason is simple, almost five years ago I lost my wife to breast cancer after a long and hard battle. This walk was started by the daughter of a family friend and has grown from just 250 participants in 2001 to over 2000 walkers last year. I have a simple request that does not entail a long drive down winding roads, has no concours prizes, nor end in a FuddBurger. In fact this event gets you some fresh air and a healthy 4 mile walk (for those of you who only want to walk 2 miles there is a bus provided back to the starting point) with thousands of others who come to help find a cure so that some day in the future no one will have to lose someone they love to this insidious disease. Over 80% of every dollar raised goes directly to research and not administrative costs like many other fund raising organizations which is why we have partnered with City of Hope for this walk.
I appeal to you as a fellow NSXer and a friend to join us for the walk and if you can't come to Edison then please sign up to become a virtual walker and join us in support and spirit :smile:
You can get more information directions and pre-register on line at:http://www.cityofhope.org/WalkforHope/edison/
By the way for Bailey, Mike, TheDon, Tony and others there is lots of food both before and after the walk. It's been clear and sunny every year so wear comfortable sneakers, sunscreen, bring the kids and a BIG SMILE:biggrin:
I hope to see many of you at the walk
Alan
