Walk to Remember for Perinatal and Infant Loss
10:00am-1:30pm
Huntertown
Cost: Free
Walk to Remember for Perinatal and Infant Loss will take place October 5, in Huntertown, Indiana. 2024 is the 11th Anniversary of the event, which is a leisure walk and community gathering. This FREE event is an opportunity for parents and family to come together, in the journey they walk, and know they aren’t alone in their grief.
The Walk offers something for everyone. Our highlighted activity is a one mile memorial walk around the park following a banner with your baby’s name on it. We will also have other stations with additional activities leading up to the walk itself, such as:
– 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: All supplies will be provided to create a keepsake craft to honor your angel baby.
– 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.
– Free Raffle Baskets: We have been working with area/national companies to create several lovely care baskets to raffle off to attendees. Something to bring a smile to your day, if just for a moment. There is no cost to participate, you will receive a ticket to enter to win whichever basket you would like. Check out Facebook in the days before the Walk to get a sneak peek of the baskets.
– Balloon Release: each family will receive a balloon following the memorial walk, which they can write a message to their angel baby, which will be released together.
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.
