Arthritis Foundation Walk - Lets Move Together



The Arthritis Foundation Walk - Lets's Move Together was held on the National Mall. I was joined by Miss Virginia and Miss Pre-Teen Virginia and we were eager and ready to help in anyway needed. It was great being a part of the event, do warm ups with the walkers and cheering them on as they crossed the finish line. I met a lot of children who are suffering from arthritis ailments and they were all very brave and strong in attitudes towards what they go through everyday. None of them gave up during the walk and all of them came across the finish line smiling or racing someone in their group. The Arthritis Foundation and their sponsoring organizations are dedicated to research and finding a cure and their work is to be commended. I am really looking forward to participating again next year.
