ProjectOKC has had volunteers involved in the planning of this great event. Sorry for the late notice, but we figured you already knew about it. So, here's the invite... Bring a donation, or not, it's up to you, hang out with us and we'll go for a walk with a few thousand others.

Get there at 1:00, we'll start walking as a team at 2:00. We'll be on the sloping lawn near the Water Stage at Myriad Gardens with signs that say, "Love Walks". Shoot, text or call when you're near if you can't find me. (405) 463-4648.

Here is some info about the project:

       It was a really fun experience with a party atmosphere and a good chance to bring awareness to a worthy cause. It was really great to see so many organizations supporting the cause of ending AIDS. Project OKC did our part by marching with signs to show our support for the cause. It was cold but there was hot chocolate,coffee, and dancing. My family really had a good time supporting this cause.
