2011 Walk for PKD

On Sept 24th we participated in our 6th Walk for PKD with the Hudson Valley Chapter. It was once again a great walk! We had our biggest team yet with 55 people walking with us. It was amazing! We felt so overwhelmed with the awesome support from our friends and family. This year besides our team three peas shirts we also had 3P’s hats that Matt designed. So there was a sea of blue and green throughout the walk which was great!!! As of today our team is at $15943, but I know I have $2000 more of donations to submit.  So I am hoping once all is said and done I will be over $18,000. In this economy that is absolutely unbelievable!!!!! To raise all of that money and raise so much money for ARPKD really helps me feel like I am doing something with this diagnosis. And I actually think when we do the walk it makes Max feel special, as strange as that may sound.

If we are get up to $18,000 this year then we will be close to $100,000 for our total from all 6 walks. I cannot even fathom that! We did over $17,000 our first year, over $13,000 our second, over $14,000 our third year, over $16,000 our fourth, a whopping $23,000 last year, and now $18,000 more.
