Walk to Remember

No footprint is too small to leave an imprint in this world. Remembering your baby is an important part of the healing journey. Walk To Remember is a time for all grieving families to come together and be surrounded by love and support from their families, friends, and our local community. This is a time to not only reflect on loss, but to embrace love. 

This event is held each year in October to observe National Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day. The Walk is dedicated to our local grieving families and to their departed children (no matter how long ago or recently the loss occurred). All families and their friends in the community are welcome to participate at no cost. *Registration Encouraged*
