Please mark your calendars to join UCLA Stein Eye Institute colleagues, volunteers and patients on Saturday, October 26, 2019 for the 13th Annual Los Angeles Foundation Fighting Blindness VisionWalk!  The 5k walk will take place at Crescent Bay Park in Santa Monica and offers entertainment for the whole family with a free BBQ lunch following the event.  Registration begins at 9:00am, with a walk start time of 10:00am.  The Stein Eye Institute is a Lead Sponsor again this year and we are hoping for a strong turnout from faculty, staff and volunteers!

Parking, giveaways and lunch will be provided for each walker and their guests.  You can pre-register via the team page link provided or just show up the morning of the walk and join us.  There are no fundraising requirements.  Please bring a friend, co-worker, neighbor or family member with you.  Dogs (as long as they are on a leash) are also welcome.  If your middle or high school students participate in the walk, we are happy to provide a participation letter so they can earn community service hours if needed.

Look for our Team Stein Eye Leader and Jules and Doris Stein UCLA Support Group Volunteer Patricia Tawfik – holding a Team SEI poster – before the race for a group photo near the starting point.  Contact us with questions at x54148.
