Thank you for supporting Autism Research when you sponsered me in the Autism Walk this weekend. It was a chilly day (it was in the 40s when we left), but the sun peaked out & you were able to enjoy the brisk weather. That & all the t-shirts helped! (I had on a tank top, my shirt, an Autism Walk t-shirt, my Team's t-shirt, then my sweat shirt! It was a bit windy!!) I'm guessing there were at least 250 people there. Our team was the largest (50 registered) & we raised the
second highest amount (as far as I can tell from online, never did hear the totals raised...) We reached our goal & that's what counts. It was a slow start with everyone filing in, registering, trying to warm up with coffee... but we made it! There was just one thing I didn't get-- you're under a roof that is very loud & echos, why does the music have to be so loud. So many kids (& adults) were overwhelmed already, add sensory overload to that -- not a good idea. Oh well, we seeked calmness in the seats out in the open. (It worked!) They had a two man band playing out in the open -- very good volume wise & talent wise. (I wish I knew who they were, I'd recommend them anytime!) I was hoping they would have posted all the teams photographs online for me to share... but our team is no where to be seen. They do have some photos available through a slideshow, so check them out (it won't take long)! Thanks again to those mysterious initials above! :) (If you want to identify yourself in a comment, go for it!)
