CHOC Walk in the Park

CHOC Walk in the Park 2016

I'm finally doing it! I'm walking in this years CHOC Walk and can't be more excited or proud to be apart of this. I'm fortunate to have never needed the services of CHOC but am secure in the fact that it is there for those who need it. Have you ever participated? If not here's a little background and what it's all about. Now in it's 26th year, CHOC Walk in the park will be a little extra “spooktacular" for the entire family as it occurs the day before Halloween  Find out more about the costume guidelines here.

Setting the goal even higher! This year’s CHOC Walk goal is to raise $2.7 million. For more than 50 years, CHOC Children’s Hospital has provided the very latest life-saving medical treatments to Southern California’s kids and is the only pediatric-focused trauma center. CHOC has always been at the forefront of providing compassionate, state-of-the-art patient- and family-centered care. We are huge Disney fans and Just as Walt Disney himself supported this amazing cause, I am more than happy to do my small part to help. I can't wait to share my experience as I know it will be one filled with the magic of the park and the immense support of a wonderful community of walkers.
