Walk MS Still On For Saturday- Rain, Snow Or Shine

By Mark Ackerman

DENVER (CBS4) - The National MS Society says a forecast for wet weather won't stop its annual Walk MS fundraiser scheduled for Saturday morning at City Park in Denver.

Walk MS Denver is the largest Walk MS event in the country and CBS4 is a proud sponsor.

No matter what the weather brings, the organizers say the event will go on as planned with the 5K run starting at 8 a.m. followed by the walk at 9:30 a.m.

Multiple sclerosis affects more than 100,000 people in Colorado and Wyoming. The MS Society was hoping 10,000 people would take part in the fundraiser which is expected to raise $1 million for MS research.
