As part of our expanded Community Outreach Program, Local Section 1405 is proud to offer its membership the opportunity to participate in Rock The Cure, 2010 Walk to Cure Diabetes. The ASQ team is planning to participate in this worthwhile event on Saturday, November 6 at Reliant Park to build diabetes awareness, raise money to fund research, and help find a cure for diabetes and its many serious complications. Check-in begins at 7:30 AM and the 5K walk itself commences at 9 AM. Last year's walk raised over $1.6 million for this cause.
Even if participating in the walk is not feasible, there are many other volunteer opportunities available such as greeting participants, passing out T-shirts, handing out food and water to the walkers, taking monetary donations, and just have a great Saturday with other ASQ Section 1405 members in supporting a worthwhile cause. You even get a t-shirt!

Start planning for the 2010 ASQ Holiday Dinner to be held on December 4, 2010 at the San Luis Resort on Galveston Island. The party is expected to be bigger and better than the one last year. And the menu will be outstanding with turkey, pork loin, prime rib and many different deserts. ASQ Sections 1405 and 1422 are hosting the event, but all ASQ members in the region are invited to attend.
Toys for Tots will be the charity again this year. Last year was a huge success as we collected bags and bags of toys for the Marine Corp toy drive.
