50-Mile
Day of the 2001 Gift of Life Walk-Run
Get
Up and Go!
Every
moment of the hour, day or week during the course of our Walk-Run is
filled with meaning for those who step out for life. The futures of
children hang in the balance. Twenty exhilarating days add up to
saving perhaps hundreds of boys and girls whose days are otherwise numbered.
Each
morning's wake-up call dawns with high hopes. And with high promise
as the community and local media gather
to launch the day's adventure--the mayor and town officials, TV,
radio and news journalists, throngs of Rotarians with their families,
friends and business associates.
Sponsors
will also be amply and gratefully acknowledged through exposure and
give-aways to all wellwishers and bystanders as we mobilize for the
day and at rest stops. Sample products and literature will be there
for the taking, bolstered by placards and posters also crediting our
sponsors while we?re on the move. Local participants need only share
the line of march for three to five miles; our sturdy regulars will
complete the daily route.
1000
Miles of Smiles!
It's
the catchy theme line for gala evening receptions in selected cities
hosted by Rotarians to honor our marathoners and partners for the
day. Each meet-and-mingle event will socially join local Rotarians
and sponsor representatives in a lively get-together. Also expect a
Photo-Op, from time to time, with national and local celebrities
taking to the road in our Hearts-For Hearts crusade on behalf of the children.
