No, not that I'm aware of. I've never heard of a Chiari walk.
I'll check into that. not thatt I could walk in something like that, but maybe I could be involved somehow.
This was the first year for the chiari walk. Local support groups were to coordinate them.I know Reading , PA was on Sunday and NY city was Saturday. I could not walk either and Both were too far form me to get to. I am sure there were others, but I am not sure. Someone from the forum said there was a group closer to me.....I contacted them by e-mail- no responce.
Do u know if there r ne groups in ur area that u can get involved with? I hope u have better luck then I 've had.
Let me know,

I've only actually met 1 other Chiarian. It's just rare enough to not really have much of a support group right now.
I understand that the actor Sean Astin (Samwise in Lord of the Rings) has Chiari as does his son and he is the spokesman for us now. So, maybe he's a big enough star to help with the publicity for this.
Someone mentioned that September is Chairi month, but I didn't find that out till the end of the month. Oh well, maybe next year.
