First MS Shore Group Foundation Walk scheduled for May 19

May 12, 2017

The Sussex County MS Shore Group will hold its first MS Foundation Walk at 5 p.m., Friday, May 19. This is its first activity of 2017 to raise funds to help those living with the devastating effects of multiple sclerosis.

Members of the Shore Group, now affiliated with the MS Foundation, have developed the walk, scheduled to begin at the clubhouse in the Colonial East community, behind Panera Bread, Rehoboth Beach. Kody O'Bear, known as Delmarva's Community Bear, will be the grand marshal of the walk.

The walk team Zoom-Zooms, which has been the top MS fundraiser in Delaware for the last four years, will try to maintain that rank during the 2017 event.

Those wishing to walk should come to the clubhouse at 19 Poolhouse Lane in Colonial East at 5 p.m., May 19. To donate, call Jamie Colvett at 302-684-4513 or email jamiecolvett@comcast.net. Checks should be made out to the MS Foundation and dropped off at the walk or mailed to Jamie Colvett at 112 Sylvan Drive, Milton, DE 19968.

The walk can be one mile or three miles, according to the walkers’ ability. If they wish, they can instead help organize and administer activities at the clubhouse. A potluck dinner will be available following the walk.
