HIV Awareness Walk and Ride Recap

On April 9, 2011.. ARE held is annual HIV Awareness Walk & Ride. The event was held at Apple Blossom Mall & had a good showing of individuals. There were some awesome prize drawings including the most sought after leather “Harley Davidson” jacket.
The winner turned out the be Chris Mitchell- DJ from Q102!!!! Congrads Chris & wear the jacket well!!
The mall was set up with HIV Awareness “Tips” or signs that gave you info to be educated. There were also hidden ‘eggs’ with more info & candy for people to locate. Our good friends from the local PFLAG had an Awareness Table set up along ours.
We thank ALL of our sponsors for making it again a success!! And big thanks goes out to the guys at Coffee Cake Cafe who opened early for our walkers & donated $$$ back to ARE!! yeah…coffee was much needed and appreciated!
