Our event opens at 8:30am. Stop by our check-in tent to drop off any donations and register for our event if you haven’t done so ahead of time. There will be a DJ playing music, live band, activities for all ages, photo opportunities, a chance to check out the different tents and what they have to offer, and much more - there's something for everyone as we get ready to walk together for a great cause!
The Making Strides walk is a 5k, 3-mile "at your own pace" walk. You do not have to complete the full 3 miles if you are not up to it - this is a no pressure event. Our #1 goal is to bring awareness, raise funds, and have fun! This walk will take place rain or shine, so check the weather and dress accordingly! We cannot wait to see you in your pink gear.
