FUNDRAISING WALK IN QUEENS

The L. Lodico Walk for Celiac Disease is scheduled to take place at Little Bay Park in Queens on Sunday morning, May 20, 2007. (For the urban explorers who--like me--haven't yet been to the park: It offers a striking bridge view!)

The event organizer is Lina Lodico (who had a table at the recent Gluten-Free Vendor Fair), with sponsorship from the CSA's Long Island Celiac Sprue Support Group, Chapter 23. I understand that gluten-free vendors and other attractions will be at this event.

Registration materials can be found here. Participants are encouraged to arrive at 9 am on the day of the event; the walk lasts from 10 am to noon.

Proceeds go to the Celiac Disease Center at Columbia University and the Celiac Sprue Association (CSA).

The event is listed on the calendar of the New York City Celiac Disease Meetup Group.
