5K Walk for Life - Take Strides for LIFE!
Join us Sunday, Sept. 20, 2009 at Jack Johnson Field in Canal Winchester, OH for the 2nd Annual 5K "Walk for Life" as we walk, run and stroll to support The Women's Clinic of Columbus.
Walker check-in and registration start at 1:00 pm. The kids' fun run kicks off at 1:45 pm and the 5k walk and run start at 2:00 pm.
Bring the entire family from babies in strollers to grandparent to children of all ages and be part of something you can believe in - last year over 350 walkers raised $50,000 to help give hope to young adults facing unexpected pregnancies!
Expect to run into some old firends and make new ones as we "take strides for LIFE."

Hear what walkers had to say about 2008's "Walk for Life": "Working with The Women's Clinic has been a rewarding experience. Participating in the Walk For Life gave me a sense of accomplishment knowing that I was helping to save lives." ~ Vaughn Walters "It became a family adventure for us. It was wonderful to see the five of us working together. We had a great time turning it into a competition among us to see who would get the most in pledges. This experience brought us closer together." ~Wayne Pemberton |
