NE Ga. man plans 1,000-mile walk for troops

WASHINGTON - A northeast Georgia man with a history of staging unusual fundraisers is planning to walk a 1,000-mile loop between the White House and the Capitol to encourage people to donate international calling cards to troops overseas.<br /> <br /> Cody Anderson of Mineral Bluff said he'll walk eight hours a day through July 7. Although he hasn't coordinated it with the White House, he is encouraging people to send cards of any value to the White House with a note saying it's for his walkathon. <br /> <br /> In 1979, Anderson pulled a covered wagon across the country for the American Heart Association. He later pedaled a miniature space shuttle 7,000 miles to honor the crew of the Challenger.
