This weekend was the third annual, Wild West MS Walkabout–a fantastic, 3 Day | 50 Mile walk event in Fort Collins, Colorado. The walk is put together with the help of many amazing volunteers and sponsors, and raises funds to support those living with multiple sclerosis. For the past two years, Jalapeno Design has helped the Wild West MS Walkabout with their website, brochures, posters, t-shirts, etc. Feeling thus connected to the event and the people who put it together, we headed up to Fort Collins on Saturday to cheer on the walkers and volunteers working so hard to make the event such a success. I, of course, brought my camera for some photos. :)
The rest stop that we hung out at had some wonderful clowns and music providing encouragement to all of the walkers. When we first got there, James seemed a bit hesitant about the clowns.
“They’re nice clowns?” he asked me.
“Oh yeah, they’re very nice.”
…”they won’t pick me up?” James asked still unsure.
Turned out the clowns were very nice and never tried to pick James up. Phew. :)
