The Walk will be the first B’nai Mitzvah activity of the year, however, Team CKH is not limited to B’nai Mitzvah kids! If you want to honor or remember a loved one with AD, do some meaningful social action, or just walk a couple of miles with other CKHers, please consider joining the team and/or making a donation on Daniel’s web page. Go to www.alz-austin.org, and click on “Memory Walk – Capitol of Texas” on the right side of the page. Then, under Top Fundraisers (!), click Daniel Graves. If he’s not under Top Fundraisers, click “Register” or “Sponsor a Participant” and follow the prompts. For more information please contact Diane Graves, dsgraves@austin.rr.com or 795-9150.
