Meet This Year’s CHOC Walk Ambassador Mac Christman

As we progress closer and closer to the 25th Annual Children’s Hospital of Orange County (CHOC) “Walk in the Park,” we’d like to share some insight on this year’s ambassador, Mac Christman.

Mac, who is a current freshman at Tesoro High School, has had a history with CHOC. He enjoys sports such as football and baseball. His number one team picks include the Anaheim Ducks, the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim and the Pittsburgh Steelers. With his love of sports, Mac joined his school’s cross country and track team, partaking in runs like the mile and two mile. Mac is also a fan of video games and being with family and friends.

Born with form Spina Bifida, CHOC has helped Mac with many operations and procedures throughout the years. He has not and will not let his medical issues get in the way of who he is.

As a family and team, the Christmans have participated in the CHOC Walk for the past 15 years. Not only to show thanks for all their support, but also to raise awareness for this wonderful hospital.
