Young Life Memorial Run - July 10, 2021, 7pm

Join us for a 2.5 mile run/walk in memory of young lives lost too soon with their families and friends.

Each life will be represented on the course: The “Each-One-Counts-Mile” will feature a white flag for each loss during pregnancy. The last mile will host memorial markers of infants, children and young adults.

We will kick off the event with a Rainbow Kiddie Dash for ages 2-8 years old, and wrap it up with a "Light Up for Life" Sky Lantern Release at sunset.
