Walk4babies

You have all been such wonderful supporters and advocates for Akron Children's Hospital, that I wanted to send along another family-friendly event. While this event is not NICU focused, it does support another big need at ACH - our hematology/oncology department. Plus, it’s a great, affordable night out with the family. Please consider joining. We appreciate all of you. http://giving.akronchildrens.org/site/TR?fr_id=1111&pg=entry

Hi All,

We’re overwhelmed by the support we’ve received this year for our Walk for Babies event this coming Sunday, September 18th. Due to the high volume in t-shirt orders we received, we’ve decided to have (2) times for teams and/or individuals to pick up t-shirts on Friday, September 16th. On Friday a table will be at our round about Kay Jewelers Pavilion location at Akron Children’s Hospital! If these times don’t work & you prefer to pick up as planned at the walk Sunday morning please still continue to do so 😊

We’re looking forward to Sunday & meeting all of you at the walk!

We’re getting excited for September 18th! We currently have 220 signed up for our walk at the zoo! Let’s continue to spread the word & get even more signed up! I also wanted to give a few updates regarding the event. Registration begins at 7:30AM, the walk will directly follow. We'll all gather together in the front of the zoo after registration where the Kaulig Family will kick off the walk with a few words & quick welcome! Once you've completed the walk we welcome all to enjoy the Akron Zoo. The zoo opens to the public at 10AM but once you have entered for the walk that counts as your zoo entry, no other tickets needed. Wristbands will be given to everyone as your ticket for the day the day of the event. Water stations will be located in different places throughout the zoo walk! Strollers are allowed, dogs are not allowed. Please feel free to reach out with any questions, email: [email protected] & phone # (330)-523-9553

See you all on the 18th – Thank you for your continued support!
