Team Spearly continues to live fully throughout all seasons of life. This spring, we supported the National Alliance for Mental Illness and participated in the 2014 NAMI Walk for the fourth year in a row! This year's NAMI Walk was held on May 17th at the beautiful Centennial Center Park in Centennial, Colorado, located just 14 miles outside of Denver.
Spearly residents, staff, and family members (both two-legged and four-legged) enjoyed the sunshine and crisp Colorado air as they exercised and socialized during a wonderful event to show support and raise funds for mental illness. The Spearly Center also had a booth with information about recent renovations at Spearly, a raffle, and giveaways. It's always special to take part in a community event for a common goal. A great time was had by all! If you would like to join Team Spearly for next year's NAMI Walk, please let us know... we would love to walk with you!
