Maxine Thistle, St. John\u2019s wins the Early Bird SuperWalk prize<\/p><\/div>\n

SuperWalk 2009 announces its first Early Bird Winner!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Congratulations to Maxine Thistle of St. John\u2019s Newfoundland, SuperWalk\u2019s first Early Bird winner. Maxine receives a $500 gift certificate to Chapters\/Indigo and is eager to start spending.<\/p>\n

After her best friend was diagnosed with Parkinson\u2019s 16 years ago, Maxine began to volunteer for Parkinson Society Newfoundland & Labrador and has been heavily involved ever since. As an organizing member of the first SuperWalk in St. John\u2019s, a former chair of their Board for five years and a current member of the Education and Support Committee, Maxine knows the importance of the monies raised by SuperWalk. She is especially concerned about the ongoing need for support, not just for those diagnosed with Parkinson\u2019s, but for their family and friends as well. That is why she walks.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe need to concentrate on providing support because everyone affected by Parkinson\u2019s needs it,\u201d says Maxine. \u201cEven if we found a cure tomorrow it is so important that we make sure people are equipped to cope with the disease in their daily lives.\u201d<\/p>\n

Maxine remains hopeful that her efforts to effect change, along with those of so many other volunteers, are truly making a difference.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are a lot of challenges that arise when you have Parkinson\u2019s. It\u2019s not a pretty disease,\u201d says Maxine. \u201cThe biggest challenge is to stay positive. There is hope at the end of the tunnel. The question is, just when are we going to find a cure?\u201d<\/p>\n

Armed with this hope, there is no doubt in Maxine\u2019s mind that walkers in over 80 communities across Canada will reach this year\u2019s SuperWalk fundraising goal of $2.4 million.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
