Eighth annual Walk to Remember for Perinatal and Infant Loss
10:00am-2:00pm
Huntertown
Cost: Free
This FREE memorial event is for families who have experienced the loss of a pregnancy at any gestation or the loss of an infant.
Activities include:
A one mile memorial walk around the park following a banner with your baby’s name on it.
A Resource Tent: Filled with information on many area organizations that specialize in memorial items, support groups, and so much more.
Chalk Art: A wonderful activity for the entire family to draw on a section of the 1 mile path to remember your baby.
Family Craft: This year’s craft we’ll be creating a personalized candle – a great item to have in preparation for the Global Wave of Light which occurs on October 15 @ 7pm; to light a candle and remember all babies who have left us too soon.
– Family Photography: We have beautiful props and a professional photographer capture your family – a keepsake that can be added to the ways you continue to remember and honor your angel baby’s memory.
– Refreshments: We are always overwhelmed with our donation from Prairie Farms and other local companies who provide milk, juice, coffee, hot cocoa, snacks, and baked goods.
– Raffle: We have been working with area companies to create a few lovely care baskets to raffle off. Something to bring a smile to your day, if just for a moment.
– New this year: In lieu of a balloon release, we came up with a new way to honor and memorialize your angel baby with a pinwheel display and personalized message opportunity.
A gentle reminder that absolutely everything we do at Walk to Remember is at no cost to you. Everything is FREE to participate in. We hope you’ll join us.
