AIDS Walk NYC

The AIDS Walk was 6 miles and was held at Central Park. Its purpose was to fund and raise awareness of AIDS. Throughout the walk, there were refreshments such as cookies, water, and lemonade. Along with the refreshments, there were cheerleaders, musicians, and dancers cheering us on. I have to admit, when I was at the 1-mile mark, it felt like it was my 5th mile! At the finish line, walkers got to receive free bags, ice cream, snacks, and drinks. What I got out of the walk was a lot of sweat, snacks, and another great experience. It was overall a great time with great people for a great cause!-Jessica Li, member
