To: No Walker Left Behind

 

I never thought that I would find,

A special place in No Walker Left Behind.

You let me in with open arms,

And filled my heart with embracing charms.

You kept me going and stood by my side,

And held my hand when I cried,

I was a sock in need of a shoe,

And I am lucky to find it in all of you.

We are way more than just a team,

We made a difference and filled a dream.

I will take these memories with me forever,

And Just Keep Walking with every endeavor.

-Gina Garza NWLB '08



Packing for The 3 Day!!!

The Packing Demonstration Slide Show-aka "the baggie method"

 

Here is a link to a slide show that will help you with packing your gear bag for The 3 Day!  It is through the Kodak site, kodakgallery.com.  (You may have to sign up for a free account with Kodak to view the slide show-it takes only a second to do!)

 

The slide show is a packing demo made in 2005 and some changes were made to packing materials in 2007 thanks to help from the Atlanta coaches.  Please be sure to read the captions under the photos.  This should help all of the first time walkers out there!
