Peoples Drug Mart Walk for ALS goes Sunday at Lakeside
By Nelson Daily Staff
The West Kootenay Chapter of the ALS is tossing out the welcome mat for people to join in on the Peoples Drug Mart Walk for ALS in Nelson Sunday at 1 p.m. at the Lakeside Rotary Park.
The day begins with registration at 11:30 a.m. before the gun sounds for the walk.
Organizers have also planned for entertaining speakers, prizes, tasty treats and the satisfying feeling that will come from supporting a community event dedicated to finding a cure for ALS.
“It promises to be a fun event, so please mark this Sunday (June 2) on your calendar and bring a friend,” said Gord Shannon, West Kootenay Walk for ALS Coordinator and ALS patient.
“I look forward to seeing you there.”
For more information please contact Gord Shannon at (cell) 250-354-8585 or (home) 250-352-5989 or on the web at westkootenaywalk@alsbc.ca
