Memories of 2022...
The day started off nice and sunny. Introductions were announced by Frank from 93.7 CJNU. Warm-ups were led by Rachel Kashton to get everyone limbered up and our President (now past president), Micheline Chaput, got us started off and down the path. The 2022 Walk to End ALS had begun!
Some showers crept in during the walk. However, one attendee pointed out that “the showers may be making us damp, but they weren’t going to dampen our spirits!”
Gradually the rain dissipated, giving way to glorious sunshine once again.
We had a wonderful time and brought a lot of hope to those living with ALS/MND. We can’t wait to see you at the Walk in 2023.
In the meantime enjoy some of these memories in the gallery below…
