The Lynchburg, Charlottesville, Harrisonburg and Staunton Memory Walk Committees have planned to be present at many events in the coming months.  Check out the festivals, County Fairs and sporting events where you'll see them below.  Come out to support us and sign up your team for a 2010 Memory Walk on October...or better yet, volunteer to help at one of the events!

Looking for an opportunity to recruit more walkers, raise a few more dollars for your Memory Walk team, or just share why Memory Walk is so important to you???
