Add Review/CommentHundred of your friends and neighbors have already made plans, and we hope you will, too. Join THP on Sunday, December 7th at historic War Memorial Stadium in Greensboro. Color, pageantry, and lots of compassion – rain, shine, or snow – will mark THP’s 17th Annual Winter Walk for AIDS, presented by Triad Health Project, Greensboro Parks and Recreation, MillerCoors, Time Warner Cable, and YES! Weekly Magazine, and generously supported by numerous other community sponsors. Walk teams and individuals will again take to the beautiful streets of the historic Aycock Neighborhood, Fisher Park, and downtown for the 3-mile trek – individuals, as well as folks from companies, schools, faith-based organizations, civic groups, and families – all joining in-step to raise vital funds and awareness for the fight against HIV/AIDS in the Piedmont. As always, Winter Walk promises to be a powerful and moving experience as THP marks World AIDS Day, remembering those lost to AIDS and looking to a future when HIV/AIDS is defeated. THP is delighted to have Guilford County State Representative Pricey Harrison as our 2008 Winter Walk Honorary Chairwoman, our modest way of honoring Representative Harrison’s tremendous contributions to the HIV/AIDS crisis in North Carolina. Since arriving at the state capital, she’s been front and center at the legislature introducing and advocating for a number of policies, including more funding for vital HIV/AIDS related services and statewide prevention programs. The roots of her family’s philanthropic support also run very deeply throughout our local community. Prior to going to Raleigh, Pricey worked as a communications law attorney and volunteer environmental advocate. For more information about Winter Walk and to get your team registered, call 336-275-1654, or go to www.triadhealthproject.com. Forming a team is a fun way to involve friends, family, colleagues, and neighbors. However, you don’t have to “team up” to participate. Individuals are welcome to join the biggest Winter Walk team of all – over 2,000 caring people walking together for a common cause.
