It drew some 200 participants and families.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Walk &amp; Roll is a critical fundraising event to support recreation therapy programs for adults with disabilities at the Munroe-Meyer Institute. Recreation opportunities are increasingly important for adults with disabilities as medical advances help them live longer, said Mary McHale, president of the Meyer Foundation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>And the Walk &amp; Roll event is a great opportunity for people with disabilities, their parents and friends to connect with other families and friends, McHale said. It will include clowns and an appearance by the 501st Legion Star Wars.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/meyerfoundation.ezeventsolutions.com\/MFwalkandroll\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Register for the event<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We are Nebraska Medicine and UNMC.
