Walkers needed at this New River Mall event

November 20, 2013
The Collegiate Chapter of Omega Psi of Epsilon Sigma Alpha at VA Tech is sponsoring the ST. JUDE "GIVE THANKS" WALK for SW Virginia on Saturday, November 23 inside the New River valley Mall in Christiansburg. Help raise money for St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital. 

The chapter has been working hard to “up” the walk this year from the previous ones held in Roanoke. This year the walk will have a silent auction for hotel lodging, gift cards and merchandise; activities for the children and adults to raise additional funds for the hospital.  Incentive prizes will be offered from ALSAC, the fundraising arm of St Jude, according to funds raised. For a $35 donation, one will receive a printed shirt from St. Jude and other prizes available determined by donations given.  However, the walk is FREE and family-stroller friendly, and donations in any amount are welcome. 

Registration starts at 7 AM; Walk at 8 AM; Awards at 10:15 AM inside the New River Mall. Learn more and register here.
