MS Walk

On April 10th, there was a walk for multiple sclerosis in the park. One of the sisters in my sorority has MS, so for the past couple years, we have had a team at the event walking to help raise money. Our team name at the walk was Court Support.

I expected this event to be much like Relay for Life. However there were many differences. The main difference was that all of the food and things to do were free. The food was mostly donated by Giant. There was also a moon bounce and face painting which were both free. I decided to get my face painted and made one of my sorority sisters do the same...


We all tried to wear yellow because that is the awareness color for MS. The walk was great because it was beautiful outside and there were people of all ages participating. It was cute to see the little kids racing with their tricycles. I was really happy I participated in the event because we had multiple people from town and women who ran the event thanking us for being there. They wanted our sorority to be in the newspaper to show that college kids, especially those in greek life, can do other things than just party. However, the press did not come to cover the event. It was sad to hear that, because a lot of work had to go into the event and those running it did not get any recognition for their efforts.
