Walking for a Cause
On Saturday, February 25th, some members of the Patients 4 Change community participated in the “Coldest Night of the Year” walk. This annual event saw hundreds of Calgarians bundling up and trekking 2, 5 or 10 km to raise money for the homeless, hungry and hurting.

Not only was this a great way to help others in the Calgary community, it also was a lot of fun. In fact, the Pts4Chg members, who walked under the name of “Team Goose Bump,” got so caught up in the excitement and conversation that they walked two blocks past a key corner that was to take them to the finish line. What’s a few more blocks added to a 10km walk?!
Looking forward to next year’s event.
Great time with special friends for a wonderful cause. #cnoy17 #teamgoosebump @sandioelhaupl @lizinyyc @CNOY_yyc pic.twitter.com/auCy7XYrKE
