I am trying to reach out to the organizers of the Walk/run to help with any and all parts of the neighborhood restoration projects. I am the principal of Oconomowoc High School and ran this falls race. I believe strongly in your efforts and want to help. I have talked with the school and community a great deal about your efforts and have many who would help as well. Please contact us.
