Hey, are you looking for a charity to support this season? May I recommend the Alzheimer's Memory Walk? For one thing, it would be good exercise - which helps combat the early onset of dementia, among other things. For another, you won't have to waste gas on it. And most importantly, it will be a fun social event to get you out of the house. Oh wait, that's just me that has that problem.
Anyway, the Alzheimer's Memory Walk organizers are looking for more captains - people to help coordinate walkers and support resources, like water stations and whatnot.
So click away, start a team. Bring some kids with you, or better yet, teenagers - it's never too early to start encouraging a sense of civic duty and volunteering. Also, they can talk to each other while they walk. Or trade songs on their MP3 players. The point is, bring as many people as you can and have fun. The walks will take places at different times in different areas, so check and see which one is nearest you!
