My name is Richard (Dick) MacPherson, a member of the Middleton (MA)Lions Club for 38 years. Last year my Journey For Sight walk was the Appalachian Trail. I hiked from Georgia to Maine, taking six months from start to finish. I visited some Lions Clubs along the trail. This year I plan to hike the Pacific Crest Trail from the Mexican border through to Canada. It should take about the same amount of time. I will start my walk on April 15 2009.
 
  Do you know that : . .
 
More than 40 million people in the world are blind today.
  80% of the world's blind are needlessly blind

A journey of 1000 miles begins with one step. (Lao Tzu) My journey of 2650 miles begins with the same one step. I expect it to take 5-6 months. Each step will help bring sight to many people. This can be done with your help. Please sponser me by making a donation to help me reach my goal of $10,000. Click on Mass Lions Eye Research page to learn more about eye research.
