Welcome

Welcome to the Austin CureSearch Walk blog!  Your walk committee has been hard at work since early this spring to make sure that the 3rd Annual Austin CureSearch walk is a huge success!  This year the fundraising goal has been set at $58,000 and as of today our fabulous teams have already raised almost $39,500.  Can we get to $60,000 by September 24?

There are currently 26 teams signed up and just under 200 walkers.  To help recruit for the walk and spread the word about childhood cancer awareness month, multiple events will be taking place around town.  Check back often to view the calendar on the blog main page!
