Walk & Roll is the largest gathering of the Spina Bifida Association of Colorado community, typically over 250 people, with families coming from all over Colorado as well as Wyoming, Nebraska, Arizona, and New Mexico. The Walk & Roll is designed to build the local Colorado community and raise financial support for people living with Spina Bifida.
For more than 40 years, the Spina Bifida Association (SBA) has dedicated itself to preventing Spina Bifida and enhancing the lives of all affected. We work to make a practical, positive difference every day, helping to improve care so our community can enjoy life to the fullest and expect a better future.
