We are less than 3 weeks away from the big event!
Here are a few reminders/notes as we get closer to the event:
- Check-in begins at 8 AM, with walking starting at 9 AM. If you have friends that are still thinking about walking, there will be same-day registration (starting at 8 AM)!
- EVERYONE, young or old is invited to register! There is no set distance, but expect to walk 30-60 minutes TOTAL!
- The event will take place at the Franklin High School Outdoor Track off of Oak Street. Please park as close to the track as possible – there will be shamrock signs to help you navigate to the track.
Please remember to reach out to family and friends for pledges. They can use the same website, https://walkforrefugees.org/ and donate as much or as little as they want. Make sure they put your name when donating. As you increase the number of pledges you increase the number of raffle tickets you will receive the day of the event. There are some pretty AMAZING raffle prizes (see the sponsor list at the end)!
Thank you for supporting such a wonderful cause! We appreciate your support and look forward to walking with you, whether it be in-person or virtually!
