My Aunt Marcia and I participate in the annual Ramp-Wheel-O-Thon every year! The Ramp-Wheel-O-Thon is an organization for people with Cerebral Palsy and other disabilities too meet people and socialize together every year! This will be the third year in a row that we have done this!
It makes me feel good to know that I can help other people achieve their goals and become independent as possible! The Ramp-Wheel-O-Thon is a three mile walk along the river! Then after the walk there is a picnic lunch served along with raffle prizes that follow!
You can ask family members and friends to walk with you on the wheel-o-thon! You also ask them too sponsor you! If you receive many sponsor's your team raises money and if your team raises the highest amount of money then you win a prize!
Also after the walk there is a picnic lunch which is served and there is a raffle prize drawing!
I participate in this event because I want people with disabilities too not be afraid of the world and there is a life out there for people with Cerebral Palsy, you just have to not worry about what people think and you know that you are doing something positive for yourself! Plus it makes you feel good that you have accomplished your goals into becoming independent!
Hey Jen, We should add a picture of us at the Walk-A-Thon with this post!
