Donna G Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 Where will you walk, on the Charles, at the Aboretum, Beacon Steet? Up on the hill ( capital) or how about the Boston Gardens, I haven't been there in years. When? If I know several months ahead maybe I can fly back east , walk , and visit the family. Let me know. Family live in Foxboro and Franklin now. Donna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dadstimeon Posted February 20, 2006 Author Share Posted February 20, 2006 Donna--So far possible sites are Castle Island, Boston Common, Boston Garden, Charles River. We are shooting for October/November. We are just starting to get our feet wet with this, it's new territory for the both of us and we are hopeing more will come on board with us. Will keep you posted. Thanks Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geri Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Donna, that would be great if you can come "home" for the walk/run I'm sure your family would be pleased too. We are so excited to be getting this going, a challenge for the next few months that will certainly keep Rich and I off the streets!! Hope we meet you in the fall.

Kasey Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Hey Donna!!!!! If you are planning to go, I will try to make it too. Wouldn't that be something? Rich and Geri......look out if THAT happens !!!!!! Best of luck to both of you! Love, Kasey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ry Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 This is really a great thing you are doing. If there is something I can do from afar here--let me know. If you've never been to one of these walks, I would suggest going to one (for any cause) just to see how they are set up. Roseanne does a great job on the Michigan walk and I am sure she'd help you. Geri--not sure this will keep Rich off the streets but nice try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karma1976 Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 I am in VERY IN for this!! I can get my whole family to walk for this too as well as friends. I have wanted to start a walk for a while but have gotten sidetrack so I am super glad you are doing this. Honestly let me know what you need me to do I am in!! Now this was the problem I always had with walks and the November thought. It can be quite cold as you know and also it is New England it could be 80's all November or snowing and blizzards WHO KNOWS!! I know there are a lot of walks in the warm weather but I bet we would get a bigger response. BUT I totally understand a fall walk as well. We should maybe start contacting the mayor’s office for all the details they want and or permits we will need and our local reps/sen. to get the ball rolling???
