        All employees are welcome--at 11:30 on 14 May, in the HLO2 
        Cafeteria Annex--to join in DIGITAL's kickoff for the annual 
        Boston (Sunday, 1 June) and Worcester (Sunday, 8 June) AIDS 
        Pledge Walks.  Registration materials will be available for 
        both events.
                
        Among the honored guests currently scheduled for the kickoff
        are:

        Ed Caldwell--Vice President of Digital Semiconductor, and 
        opening speaker;

        Paul Ross--Consultant/Director of HIV Education for DIGITAL, who 
        plans to discuss the company's past and present contributions 
        to this event;

        Larry Kessler--Director of the Aids Action Committee (AAC)
        of Boston, who will talk to where the money raised will be 
        spent and why the disease has not quite been conquered; and

        Andi Kudzol--Member of the Board of Directors of Aids Project 
        Worcester, who will share her experiences as an active volunteer 
        and as a young woman living with AIDS.

        The kickoff will be an opportunity for community members to 
        learn the facts about HIV and AIDS, become informed about local 
        support groups that might need volunteers, and to help raise 
        money to educate and provide support for people living with 
        HIV and AIDS.

In addition to the speakers at this Wednesdays Corporate Kick-off Rally
for the AIDS Walks, Ed Caldwell--Vice President of Digital Semiconductor, 
Paul Ross--Consultant/Director of HIV Education for DIGITAL, Larry 
Kessler--Director of the Aids Action Committee (AAC), and Andi Kudzol--Member 
of the Board of Directors of Aids Project Worcester, a viewing of the 
AIDS Panel will be held as well. Several people donated time and effort to 
either make a panel for someone they know, or make a panel for someone else 
from the company for someone they knew. 

The overall collection of panels was named after Jeremy Mathews. He was a 
DIGITAL employee who died of AIDS last summer. There have been about 10
people who submitted panels of people they knew who died of AIDS complications. 

The panel can be viewed between the hours of 11:00-1:00 in the cafe annex at 
HLO2 on Wednesday, May 14th. It will be a sight you never will forget.

    The Boston and Worcester AIDS Walks are almost upon us! As in past years,
    DIGITAL is having their own Pre-Registration in TWO facilities this year. 
    One will be in Littleton and one will be in Hudson. 

    On May 30th, from 11-1:00 we will have Pre-Registration for the Boston 
    Walk in the Tay 1 Cafe. A table will be set up, and someone from AIDS 
    Action will assist in collecting the pledge sheets and money.

    On the same day in HLO2 (May 30), a table will be set up outside the 
    Credit Union to collect pledges and money for Boston. The time for this 
    will be 11:30-2:00. 

    On June 6th, during the same time periods and same locations, tables will 
    be set up for collecting money/pledges for the Worcester Walk. A 
    representative from Worcester will be at this pre-registration as well.

    What does Pre-Registration do for you? The lines are long on the day of 
    the Walk. Depending on how much money you collect, you could end up 
    carrying the AAC/APW incentive prizes around with you. This would 
    eliminate that. 

    There is a prize from the DIGITAL Logo Store that will be given out to 
    the person who collects the most amount of pledges for either walk! So 
    regardless of whether you walk the Worcester or Boston Walks, you will 
    be elligible IF you come to Pre-Registration with your form/money. The 
    prize is a Sportsgear Jacket!

    Also this year, DIGITAL has made up some great t-shirts for the Walks. 
    These are in line with the Healthy Balance t-shirts many of you already 
    have. These are probably the best designed shirts for any of the Walks 
    we have had! Each Walker gets a t-shirt! 

    If you have any questions about Pre-Registration for Littleton, call 
    Donna Winston  227-3418 [email protected]  or Patti Mahoney 227-3598
    [email protected]. If you have any questions about the Hudson
    Pre-registration, call Glen Silva at 225-6306  [email protected].

    See you all at Pre-Registration!!!!!!!
