This walk will be held at Sun Lakes and all the proceeds from this event will be going to the Wounded Warrior Project. Last year we raised $7,000 and our goal this year is to surpass that. It will consist of a two mile walk around Country Club Drive to Riviera, and back up Country Club Drive to the Main Clubhouse. If you don't feel you can do the two miles, there are turn back increments at half a mile, one mile, and 1.5 miles so there is a walk for everyone. Registration forms can be picked up at the Recreation Desk. The cost is $20 pp (checks only) and includes a goodie bag with an event T-shirt, continental breakfast after the walk and an opportunity to listen to a couple of decorated veterans. For any resident unable to walk, you can still participate by entering your golf cart into the event. We ask that the carts be decorated with a U.S. Flag, a Service Flag, or a Wounded Warrior Flag to support the event. Please note, golf cart use is for disabled residents ONLY.
