Step Forward to Cure TSC Walk set for this weekend

On April 27, the TS Alliance of Greater Alabama will host its walk-a-thon in front of the Emmet O’Neal Library.

Tuberous Sclerosis is a rare genetic disease that causes non-malignant tumor growth in major organs. Local people/businesses can by a “footprint/shoe print” and that will be displayed with sponsors’ names on a wall.

The event will include a Kid’s Corner, fundraising prizes, emcee Sheldon Hagood from Fox 6 News and a silent auction with signed Les Miles, Nick Saban and Gene Chizik footballs.

The goal is to raise $56,000.

Runners are welcome at this 5K walk. 

Registration is at 8:30 a.m. and the walk begins at 9:30 a.m.
