12 | SUN LAKES LIFESTYLES | OCTOBER 2017 | ANNUAL VETERANS WALK Sat., Nov. 11, from 9:30 to 11:30 am. Please join us for our 6th Annual Veterans Walk to honor all who have served for our country. This walk will be held in Sun Lakes and all the proceeds from this event will be going to the local VFW Troop 233. Last year we raised over $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, made out to SLCC) 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. If you know anyone who would like to be a sponsor for this event, please have them contact Jason at (951) 769-6651. Continental Breakfast is for participants only. Please carpool or use your golf cart to come up to the starting line.
