The 2006 Team Up Against Arthritis! Walk was a big success. On Saturday, May 27, people with arthritis gathered with family, friends, co-workers and other supporters to walk for the day when we can all walk pain-free.

Our special thanks go out to all of our sponsors and volunteers (listed below) and to the family of Paige Barrere, our 2006 Juvenile Arthritis Hero. Two-year-old Paige inspired a huge group of family members and friends to come out and walk on her behalf and that of other kids like her with arthritis. Paige's photo is the first on the left below; she is shown with AAOLA staff member Amanda Sanders as they admire each other's face paintings.

Please click on the thumbnail photos below to see a larger version of each picture. And make plans now to attend the 2007 arthritis walk!
