First time walking

Hi all, my name is Andrea and I live in the Riverdale section of the Bronx. As you can tell this will be my first walk with Avon walk for Breast Cancer. I am so excited. My fundraising right from the start has been wonderful. I thank all of my family and friends be standing up, and helping me out. I will be walking solo, but would like to meet up with others (either are solo people or teams), so that the walk will be even more exciting. My email is ahar105830@optonline.net. Let me hear from some of my fellow walkers.

Hi Andrea!! I am the captain of a team called Newbies for Boobies!! We are all first time walkers who sgined up solo and met on this message board and decided to form a team. Most of the girls are from NYC/NJ area. We've had a great time getting to know one another and can't wait to meet up and walk together!

Let me know if you are interested in joining us!

Andrea,

A few of the girls are planning a walk for Sept 18th I believe. I don't live near the city so I won't be able to participate. They have planning it on the message board. Look for posts from Vicky Farag or Carrie Burdick. I think they've been worknig on organzing the walk.

Andrea,

Would you like to me to get their email addresses for you? Did you want me to add you to our team roster?

Hi Laura -
I just sent a friend request to you. I meant to send a message with it. I am also a new solo walker adn interested in joining "Newbies". I live in CT so probably can't train with any of the NJ lgadies, but I'm doing pretty well training on my own. Just looking for company the days of the walk and maybe tent or hotel mates? Thanks, Mandy Ianiri

Hi Andrea,

I live in Yonkers and work in Bronx (near Third Ave Bridge). I would be interested in meeting up for a training walk. I am also walking solo. Do you have any particular days that you walk and I might be able to meet you in Riverdale as I'm a member of the Y there.
