Title: 2008 Memorial Walk and Butterfly Release! Details: The Compassionate Friends Memorial Walk and Butterfly Release will we held at Lemon Lake on August 24th at Noon
The Lake-Porter County Chapter of The Compassionate Friends invites bereaved parents, siblings, relatives and friends to register now for “A Celebration of Life… Walk to Remember” Sunday, August 24th at 12:00 noon.
The Compassionate Friends is the largest self-help bereavement organization in the world and offers friendship and understanding to families that have experienced the death of a child. There are nearly 600 chapters in the United States, including all 50 states. The Compassionate Friends 31st National Conference and walk will be held in Nashville, Tennessee where more than 1,000 are expected to participate. Several dozen chapters across the country are expected to join in concurrent walks throughout the day.
This year’s local walk will include a butterfly release held at Lemon Lake on August 24th at 12:00 noon. Following the walk, there will be a barbecue provided by TCF. Walkers are encouraged to bring a favorite side dish to share.
You do not need to be a member of The Compassionate Friends to join with us and you do not need to walk the full two miles. We welcome everyone who wants to join hands and hearts in remembering all children who have died too soon.
Anyone interested in walking should call Carol Castaneda at (219) 662-0902 to receive a registration form. There is a registration fee of $5.00--children under 10 are free. Anyone who would like to purchase a 2008 “A Celebration of Life…Walk to Remember” T-shirt or an individually boxed Monarch Butterfly should request an order form. Walkers who purchase a T-shirt are not required to pay the $5.00 registration fee.
