The fourth Annual Oklahoma PieceWalk will be May 4, 2013 which is the first Saturday of the month and it is organized by the PieceWalk Committee of AutismOklahoma.org, a local non-profit. Our Family and Friends Autism Team "Nathan's Voice" will be walking in support of our son, Nathan, and everyone affected by the autism spectrum disorder. The Piece Walk and 5K is the largest single autism event in the state of Oklahoma. The 2012 Oklahoma PieceWalk was attended by over 6,500 people, with over 500 runners in the 5K. The Annual Piece Walk and 5K generates monies back into the Oklahoma community in the form of grants or special projects and provides basic operating funds for AutismOklahoma.org. Our Family and Friends Autism Team "Nathan's Voice" is very excited to be a part of such an AWESOME opportunity to "pay it forward" in the autism community!!
Nathan, our nine year old son was diagnosed with Autism almost five years ago. Please consider walking with and/or supporting our Family and Friends Autism Team "Nathan's Voice" by walking with us on Saturday, May 4, 2013 and/or making a donation towards the 2013 Autism Oklahoma Piece Walk, through our team's participation. You are welcome to follow our autism team on twitter @NathansVoice for updates on the upcoming walk.
If you are wanting to start your own team, it is FAST and EASY! Walking in support of Autism can be fun especially with people that you know!! So get your friends, family and co-workers signed up to be a part of your team today. Have fun, get more people involved in the effort and raise money for Autism programs right here in Oklahoma. To get started, register, create a team name and then get started recruiting team members. Let's Walk!
