Georgia: AIDS Walk Atlanta

October 19, 2007

The 17th annual AIDS Walk Atlanta to benefit 12 Georgia HIV/AIDS service organizations takes place this Sunday at Piedmont Park. Organizers have registered 11,000 walkers and anticipate that another 4,000 or so will show up for the event. People can register at noon in the park with or without a team. A 5-kilometer run is set for 1:45 p.m., and the 2.5-kilometer walk begins at 2 p.m. Both have pre-event warm-ups. The course winds back to the park, where participants will be greeted by music and guest speakers. "We'll continue taking donations through the end of the year. So it's never too late," said Beth Costello, the walk's executive director.
