Join us!

Ohio TeamWalk Connection for people concerned with Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia (HSP) or Primary Lateral Sclerosis (PLS)

September 9, Toledo, Ohio

Meet others concerned with HSP or PLS, share stories and concerns, have fun and take us one step closer to the cure!

Connection
Gather at 10:00 a.m. on the lovely grounds of the Wildwood Preserve Metro Park at 5100 W. Central Avenue, Toledo for an HSP-PLS Connection. A shelter is reserved. Meet with others managing life with HSP or PLS, share your stories and concerns and enjoy time together. Plenty of parking is available. Wildwood is the former family estate of Robert A. Stranahan, Sr., co-founder of the Champion Spark Plug Company. Metroparks purchased the estate grounds, including the family home, in the 1970s.

TeamWalk For Our Cures walkathon
Join everyone for a TeamWalk through the prairie community at Wildwood. Walk, roll, or stroll as much as you desire. The Preserve is home to many diverse and fascinating plants and animals, providing them with critical habitat throughout the year.

Our TeamWalk is a walkathon to raise funds for research. It is a pre-paid event. You collect sponsorships for your participation in the event, not distance walked. Visit our Tips page for fundraising tips and a Sample Letter. Use this Sponsorship Form to keep track of your sponsors and mail it in with your donations one week ahead of the TeamWalk (bring late sponsorships with you). All funds raised through TeamWalk will support SPF Research Awards. TeamWalk Organizer Jim Sheorn says the group raised about $8,000 in last year's Tennessee TeamWalk and has a goal of raising $10,000 this year.

Friday Arrival Dinner
A Friday Night Arrival Dinner will be organized for 7:00 p.m. at the Bravo Cuccina Italiana restaurant (on Monroe Street in the Westfield Shopping Mall). Individuals will pay for their own dinners there.

Why Your Support Matters

There is currently no treatment to prevent, stop or reverse the degenerative process in PLS or HSP. These diseases attack one�s ability to walk, often leaving their victims in wheelchairs. They can also rob people of the ability to use their hands and arms, and ,even to speak or cause other neurological problems as well. The Spastic Paraplegia Foundation is the only organization in the Americas that is dedicated to raising funds specifically for HSP and PLS research. The organization is 100% volunteer-managed and the TeamWalk For Our Cures is the national, community event to raise funds for research.
