Lightbulb Annual Walk

Does anyone think it would be fun to organize some sort of annual walk? I think it would be a great way to meet people, network, exercise of course, and really show the determination and support for those who have gone through WLS...

I'm back in San Diego and was just thinking that it may be a fun idea... anyways let me know. I'm having dinner with my dad tonight and will run it by him, as well.

Ya I was thinking maybe we could do it sometime over the summer - on a weekend or something. We could even maybe get some cool t-shirts!

Sounds like great fun to me. Thanks for thinking of us John. I am supposed to see your Dad in a few days as I was bothering him from the ER last night. I let him know of my vote if that is ok with you.

Thanks,
Dale

I talked to him about it over dinner the other night, and he really liked the idea. We're contacting ASBS about how to formally put together such an event. I'll keep you guys posted!

Sounds like a cool thing, especially if we all had kewl tshirts. We could be a big presence at such an event. I would take part in such an endeavor!
