Arthritis Walk Pictures



We had a great time at the Arthritis Walk this past week-end. We don't have a total yet of how much we were able to raise, but we'll post that as soon as we get those numbers. The weather started out beautiful but the storms rolled in before we could get all the way through the 5k. At about the 2 and 1/2 mile mark the rain came. Being the dedicated AOII's that we are, we finished the walk in the rain! A big thanks to all who supported the walk this year!
