Charity Walk Team
We focus our charity work on diabetes in honor of our Aunt Berthas - Donald's great aunt and Laura's aunt. Unfortunately Donald's Aunt Bertha has passed away.
Our first opportunity to work with diabetes came in the form of the first Northern Virginia Walk for Diabetes to benefit the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. That's the warm up for the first walk in 2005 on the left.
Our walk team participates in the JDRF walk in June, the ADA Walk for Diabetes in October and at least one other walk chosen by the members of the team. Here is the schedule for our walks for this year. Click on the links below for more information, to join our team on one of these walks or to help us reach our fundraising goal. We raised over
$17,000 in 2007!!!
And are hoping to reach at least $20,000 in 2008
Joining our walk team means you will have a support system for fundraising and training. We hold team fundraisers along with weekly team training walks. You'll also be able to take advantage of Blue Star Fitness' training expertise as you prepare for the walk.
