What is Walterpalooza 2009?

Walterpalooza 2009 is a good time event to provide the resources for the Walterpalooza Van. This event will raise money to create a trust for an Accessible Transportation Vehical for our friend Kent Smalter (aka WalterSmalter), who has ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease). The trust will supply the funding for the ATV and all expenses related to it.
