            Thank you for your interest 
            in LifeHike. This is the first year for LifeHike and we are all 
            extremely excited. We are particularly optimistic about this years 
            hike, "A Walk in Virginia" and hope you find our mission worthy of 
            note. Again, we thank you for coming. Our mission 
            at LifeHike is to assist not-for-profit organizations who's primary 
            goal is to inform the public of often overlooked health concerns. We 
            favor those organizations that demonstrate a proactive approach to 
            physical wellness, disease prevention and a better way of life. 
            LifeHike supports organizations indirectly; we are not interested in 
            your money, nor do we try to raise a certain dollar amount. Our goal 
            is to make you aware of these organizations so you can judge them 
            according to their merits.   The idea 
            and need for a LifeHike came to me a few months ago as I sat in a 
            field Indian-style blowing on a blade of grass. The mention of an 
            extended hiking trip was fresh in my mind from a conversation I had 
            had the day before. Combine this thought with a long overwhelming 
            sensation that we are all very much alive, but at the same time, 
            introduce an eerie feeling that at that very moment we are all 
            dying, some slower than others. LifeHike was born soon after. Okay, I now know what 
            LifeHike is, but just Who Are You? |
