Thanks to everyone that helped out by working our booth at Oktoberfest last weekend. We introduced several hundred people to our organization over the 3-day weekend. We handed out alot of brochures and raised a total of $350.

I would like to extend a special thank you to Mandy and Greg. They worked together to raise most of the money collected over the weekend. See them in action in the slideshow photos on the homepage of our website.

Thanks!

The All-Star game went good today. Take some time to view the photos here:  http://www.walkinroll.org/coppermine/thumbnails.php?album=13.

There are 180 photos posted for this event on our site. The Hickory Crawdads have more photos posted on their site here.

Thanks to all of the volunteers and sponsors that made this 15th anniversary year successful.

Walkin’ Roll Activities League, Inc. will be launching a fundraiser that promotes healthy living and a conscious lifestyle. Walkin’ Roll Activities League, Inc. decided to raise awareness while also raising funds after realizing the average citizen in the United States uses 300 to 700 single-use plastic bags per year. Many of these single-use bags will end up littering our earth’s fragile eco-systems when they are mistaken for food by land and marine wildlife. The funds raised will help purchase....

Walkin' Roll Activities League, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) Non-Profit organization and relies solely on donations from our community. Walkin' Roll provides a unique opportunity for players (and their families) to participate in group activities. Our primary activity is Teeball, which will begin in March, and bowling which will begin again in October.

You can make a donation to our organization right now through Paypal by clicking here.

We welcome support in a couple of different ways:

• We would love to have you come out and have fun participating with us! Because having fun and building lasting friendships is what its all about. What can be more rewarding that knowing that you made someone smile, that you made someone's day by being at that game to help them have fun.
• We are in need of teeball supplies for the regular season. We need at least 2 new tees, a few cases of teeballs and teeball team shirts for at least 3 teams for the upcoming season.
• We are in need of a food sponsor for our all-star teeball game that should take place in late June. In years' past, we have had one sponsor for food at the final teeball game. We need enough food to feed about 150-200 people and people to serve it.
• We can always use monetary donations. Since we are a 501(c)(3) organization, we can provide a receipt for your donation upon request.

Hello my name is Kevin Tooley, the founder of Walk n Roll Activities League. We created a league to give disabled people a chance to play sports and have fun. We got Hickory Crawdads to sponsor us. I called our league Walk n Roll because some people walk and some people roll. We started with baseball. I came up with everybody got first base rule. Our third year, we expanded our activities to bowling in the fall. I went to state bowling championships the year before; people in wheelchairs got to bowl five frames at a time. I took that idea and used it for the people in wheelchairs. I wanted bumpers used because I think that it is harder to bowl without them. We got businesses to give money to help the league. We went to Western Carolina Center to be in the parade. We do swimming and dances. I’m proud of the league accomplishments. Thank you
