EVENTS
HOPE for tomorROW
This all-inclusive row was inspired by Paul's love of rowing. Our first event in 2019 was such a success, we plan to make it an annual affair!
----------
The COVID-19 pandemic has us re-focusing our energies and intentions for the 2020 event. Unfortunately, our signature ROW is simply not possible this year. Instead, we have devised a month-long virtual challenge leading up to our third annual G.H.O.S.T. Walk on Saturday, October 10.
Registration is now FREE!
Register now to participate during the month of September.
We have a bunch of fun challenges in store for you. Click here for more details and to register.
Annual G.H.O.S.T. walk
The first annual ghost walk happened two days after Paul's death. Community came together in grief and in love and in hope and in light to walk and to connect. We were so moved, we have made this an annual event. In early October, we gather on the baseball field at CVUHS and walk a lit path together.
2020 COVID event was postponed due to unsafe weather. Check back for a reschedule.
AFSP Out of the Darkness Walk
The local chapter of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention hosts an annual walk for survivors of suicide. We gathered a team of 35 on October 5th, 2019 and intend to participate every year in this inspiring event.
Stay tuned for the 2021 date.
Robb Nash Project
We are in communication with the Robb Nash Project in hopes of bringing them to Burlington. Watch for updates.
"The Robb Nash Project is an award-winning initiative that engages young people through the power of music and storytelling to inspire hope and encourage positive life choices."
