Local Tough Guys “Walk A Mile In Her Shoes!”
By Sheldon Spackman
Well it’s not something you see everyday………. Thankfully. Full grown men walking down a city pathway in high-heel shoes. The reason however is to raise awareness about domestic violence in central Alberta and money for local programs that help those living with it.
The 6th annual “Walk A Mile In Her Shoes” took place near the Women’s Outreach along Taylor Drive Thursday over the noon hour and saw roughly 250 men take on the challenge of doing just that. With smiles and laughter at the start of the walk, eventually giving way to blisters later in the afternoon.
They’ll get over it. Good work gentlemen!
