To the editor: On a beautiful spring day in May, scores of
walkers, workers, volunteers and interested friends joined together
at Kickapoo Creek Park in Lincoln for the seventh annual MS Walk.
Many businesses and individuals sponsored various aspects of the
walk with donations of food, beverages, prizes and money.
As the chairman and the committee, we are most grateful for all
the support that has been given to the Lincoln walk over the years.
To date, over $100,000 has been raised. This money is used to help
end the devastating effects of multiple sclerosis. It supports
research, along with local programs and services that enhance the
lives of people with MS. A local support group has been formed and
will receive a donation from this walk to help with their work.
