The ALS Association’s Northern New England Chapter has been a great help as I wrestle with ALS, so I am helping them with their annual fundraising walks in Bangor and Portland. My sister Edie Smith is leading the Bangor walk, and my friend Rusty Atwood is leading the Portland walk. I am hoping you will participate in perhaps even sponsor one or both walks.
Email me at georgesmithmaine@gmail.com if you can sponsor a walk. And here is the info on each walk. Thanks! – george
