Light the Night Walk

Patricia Montoya, Office Supervisor-Department of Public Relations, is forming a team to participate in the South Texas Chapter of "The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's LIGHT THE NIGHT WALK" beginning at the Institute of Texan Cultures, Saturday, Oct. 24. Check-in and festivities begin at 5:30 p.m., and the walk begins at 7 p.m.

Patricia would like to call the team "PAC Wings" and the PR Department will donate a PAC Wing T-shirt, cap and water bottle to each volunteer.

According to the Walker Manual, "Each year, thousands of walkers?raise funds to support lifesaving cancer research and provide information and services to blood cancer patients and their families." Patricia is hoping that each volunteer can raise $100 in donations for this cause. All walkers raising $100 or more will receive a "Light the Night" T-shirt from the Society. All registered fundraising participants will receive an illuminated balloon.

If you would like to be a part of the team, please email Patricia at Pmontoya@alamo.edu by Sept. 25. For more information, please call her at 486-3880.

Thank you
