Oxfam Trail walker has been one of Hong Kong's biggest fund-raising (筹款) events since 1981. It was known as Trail walker before. It is organized (组织) by Oxfam Hong Kong to raise money for helping poor people in Hong Kong and other parts of Asia and Africa. Trail walker is held in November every year. People over eighteen can group themselves into a team of four people and join this walk.

　　Oxfam Trail walker is a hard walk because you have to finish walking 100 kilometers in 48 hours. It means you may have to walk two days and nights without sleep. The trail walkers have to walk through eight country parks and over twenty hills and mountains.

　　It is an excellent chance for people to learn team spirit. All the team members must plan everything together before the event. They need to walk together to finish the walk because only the team's finishing time will be recorded. It is necessary for them to support (支持) and help each other both before and during the event.

　　You should plan what you are going to carry during the walk. You cannot carry everything with you, so it is useful to have support teams to bring you food and drinks. Warm and dry clothes are also necessary to keep you comfortable during the walk. Each team must raise at least HK $ 6,0OO. The money is used to help poor people and to support development projects (工程).

　　Why not try your best to help people in need? This will be an experience you will never forget.

Elena jogged (慢跑) with her dad in some empty lots (小块地). These out-of-the-way lots were good places to jog. But the lots were full of rocks and rubbish.
One day, Elena saw a sign on the lots. It said, “New City Park”. Elena was excited. Maybe the park would have a jogging trail (路径)! Elena told her parents about the sign.
“I read about the park in the newspaper,” said Elena’s father. “The city wants volunteers to help clean the area. Then the city will build a soccer field and a playground. But the paper didn’t mention a jogging trail.”
“Well, perhaps if I help clean up the lots, they’ll put in a jogging trail,” said Elena.
On Saturday Elena went to the lots. Many adults were working there. Some were picking up rubbish. Some were moving rocks. Elena looked around. She could carry rubbish, and she could move rocks. So she went to the area every week to do volunteer work. She told everyone she was glad to help build the park. She explained that she hoped the park would have a jogging trail. Then everyone knew her and her jogging trail.
Soon the volunteers cleared the lots. The city could start building. The mayor (市长) gave a speech. He showed a drawing of the new park. He told them about the soccer field. There would be picnic tables. There would be a playground. The park would even have basketball courts. But there was no sign of a jogging trail.
The mayor thanked the volunteers. Then he asked if they had any suggestions. The volunteers said they wanted to build a jogging trail around the park. They told the mayor how helpful Elena had been and how she wanted a jogging trail. The mayor then said, “A jogging trail won’t be hard to build. Let’s do it!”
Everyone clapped and cheered.
