The Big Wow is one of our premier events on the Dahlgren Trail. WOW stands for Walk On Wilson’s, an annual event held in locations worldwide by the Wilson’s Disease Association to raise awareness and support to fight the devastating disease. Our post-walk activities were scaled back this year due to COVID-19 precautions, but we still gathered a sizable group for the walk. Constantin Langa, who suffers from Wilson’s Disease, led the way along with his wife, Nichole, and children Traian and Adina.

Thanks to Ainsley’s Angels and Ben Tritt who supplied the trail racing chair for Constantin. This is a super group of people and we always like to see them on the trail.  Next year we hope to return to a bigger group gathering and more post-walk celebrations.

Thanks to Paula Van Alstine, Ron Harris, Warren Veazey and the Langa Family for all their work on the event.
