Autism Walk

Autism Walk

Posted by montroseparentgroup at 10:47 AM on April 28, 2009

The Autism Awareness Walk this weekend was fantastic.  Several of our members where there and proudly sported a "Montrose Parent Group" button.  Candis Coca really pulled it off.  The walk went from Johnson Elementary all the way to the highschool.  I wouldn't be surprised to learn that there where at least a hundred people who participated.  Some where families and others where providers. 


Candis found many companies to donate shirts, food and water.  At the end of the walk was a lunch tent where hot dogs, chips, and soda's where served.  They also had information tables set up by Bright Beginnings, Health Department, a health food store, and our own Amy Proctor sold awarenss bracelets at the end.  (If you would like one please contact her.)


Keep your eyes on the local paper, I think I saw them interviewing a few people. 


I was very very proud of our community for banning together to help make this event a sucess.
