Walk for Wildlife 2010

On Sunday, May 30th, 2010 I went Walking for Wildlife to raise money to help the animals hurt by the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.  I went to the Ipswich River Wildlife Sanctuary with my parents and baby brother.  It is the largest Audubon Sanctuary in Massachusetts. I donated some of my saved allowance to the sanctuary.  It was a sunny day and the weather was beautiful.  I was wearing a T-shirt that I made with all of my sponsors’ names on it.  I drew a pelican on the front.  During my walk, I saw lots of birds and other animals, even our state bird the Black-capped Chickadee!  I tried to walk as far as I could to help the animals.  By the end of the day I had walked a total of 9 miles and raised $1,462 for the National Wildlife Federation!  Thanks again to all who sponsored me and helped raise money for the animals in the Gulf.
