I'm a Team Captain, can I check in my whole team?
No, each participant needs to register themselves. We encourage you to register ONLINE now.
There is a brief security check in order to get into the stadium. We encourage you to pack light to facilitate this process.
The Walk
I'm not sure that I/someone I am walking with can walk for long, but I/we still want to walk. What can I do?
We've got you covered! There is a longer and shorter route available. The great news is - you can do as few (or as many!) loops as you'd like - and if don't want to walk- please still join us! There are plenty of other festivities you can enjoy.
Short Route (less than 1k)
Full Route (5k)
One loop inside and three loops around the outside of the stadium is a full 5k. Some may just want to complete one loop inside and one loop outside- it's up to you! There will be water stations throughout the route.
Are strollers allowed?
Yes! Strollers and wagons are allowed. We are family-friendly and hope to see lots of smiling youngsters on May 10th!
What about dogs?
Unfortunately, only service dogs are allowed.
Fun Stuff
What types of activities are available at the Walk?
We'll have: community resource booths, snacks and water, a live dj, a bounce-house, comfort dogs, batting cages, and other activities from our sponsors!
