Join Us in 2016!

Are you ready to start fighting hunger by walking and asking friends, family, and coworkers to support you? We're making it fun and easy with a Walk Kickoff Party on Friday, August 12! We'll have all the information you'll need to sign up and get started. We are also happy to announce that Ionia Kershaw of Ventura Danzar will be leading a zumba session to get your heart pumping and prep your body for our 10K hunger walk on Sunday afternoon, October 2nd.

Hope to see many of you on the 12th:

• Friday, August 12
• First United Methodist Church, Trotter Hall
• 1338 E. Santa Clara St., 93001
• 6:30-8:30pm

Walk Day is TODAY!!!

Walk day has finally arrived and we're excited! Please arrive between 1:00 and 1:45 in order to avoid a long line at check-in. Runners will start a few minutes before 2pm and walkers will head out at 2:00.

Just a few reminders: bring your envelope with the money you raised and turn it in today. If you have more to collect, we'll keep the top yellow form and you'll have 2 more weeks to turn in the envelope. If you collected online, print that form and bring it today.

We've all been hoping for an end to the heatwave and we got our wish! It will be breezy with a slight chance of a shower. WE WALK, RAIN OR SHINE ☺☔⛅🌈

Thank you for your participation and we'll see you this afternoon!
