PLEASE TAKE NOTE: The Walk for Water has been postponed due to a snowstorm! It will take place NEXT Sat. Mar. 29...same time, same place! ______________________________Come and join 'Team Z' on World Water Day March 22nd 2008, as we walk 2.4 miles and carry 10 liters of water (adult) & 4 liters of water (child). WHY WALK? In many countries children, particularly girls, are responsible for the collection of water. Girls as young as 10 years old may take the main responsibility for drawing and carrying the family's water. On this day we will be walking in an effort to help the world's poorest people gain access to safe water, sanitation and hygiene education. Water, sanitation and hygiene are the essential foundations to all other forms of development and are vital for poverty reduction. The Walk for Water begins at 11:00 am @ Huizenga Park (the upper parking lot) in Zeeland MI on Saturday, March 22nd 2008. (World Water Day). The walking course: 1.2 miles east to gather 10 or 4 liters of water and then carry that water back to the starting point. Questions? Contact: zwyghuizen@mac.com
