What could be a more fun way to raise money and awareness for the fight against HIV/AIDS in Africa than walking, biking or rollerblading along the Cape Cod Canal, followed by fellowship and a barbecue lunch?  And if you don&#039;t feel energetic enough to walk, bike or rollerblade, sponsoring someone who is is an excellent way to contribute to the effort!
