DeKALB – DeKalb County RAMP leaders are raising awareness about disabilities for the 12th year in a row Saturday with their annual Wheel-A-Thon.

The event is similar to a walk-a-thon, only participants are encouraged to get around on a set of wheels, whether it’s a wheelchair or a pair of rollerblades. Runners, walkers, strollers, bikes and scooters also are welcome. The theme is “Roll on the Wild Side.”

Money raised helps support DeKalb County RAMP’s mission to “promote an accessible society that allows and expects full participation by people with disabilities.”
