April Snow!

April 10, 2008

Hello Friends of the MS Center,

What a week!

Weve been seeing quite a bit of foot-traffic and even more phone calls to the center from newly diagnosed Alaskans or those moving to the Anchorage area. Its great to know the word is spreading that The Alaska MS Center is here and ready to provide support for those living with MS.

We have some exciting new programs on the way including our Beginning Watercolor Painting Class that starts June 10th. The class will meet Tuesdays and Thursdays June 10th-19th from 12:00  2:00 p.m. at the AKMSC office. The class is only $25 and includes the materials. Mark your calendars, this class will fill up fast! More information to come!

Although spring has retreated, its still April and snow or no snow the MS Walk is just around the corner! Get your jogging shoes on and start training. The Alaska MS Center would love to have you on our team. If youd like to join us call or e-mail to sign up. Start fundraising now! The Anchorage walk is April 19th, and the Mat-Su Walk is May 3rd.
