Registration
I registered online, do I need to check-in at the walk?
Yes! All participants must check-in on Walk Day.
I'm a Team Captain, can I check in my entire team?
No, each participant needs to check themselves in and pick up their wristband themselves.
Do I need to register to walk?
Yes! Everyone walking must register (but don't worry, its free!). Registration at the Walk is from 8:00 AM to 8:45 AM. We encourage you to register ONLINE now. If you are not registered by 2 pm on Friday, November 3rd, you will need to do same-day registration at the Walk.
Registration forms will be available on Walk Day and our volunteers will help get you registered quickly so you can enjoy the event!
The Walk
How long is the walk?
The walk is a 2 mile loop along Square Lake.
Can I run instead of walk?
We are a non-competitive walk, so the majority of people will be walkers. If you really want to run though- go for it! If you are running, please run off to the side and be considerate of our walkers!
I'm not sure that I/someone I am walking with can finish, but I/we still want to walk. What can I do?
We've got you covered! If you are unable to complete the full route, there is a cut through short cut halfway through the walk.
Are strollers allowed?
Yes! Strollers and wagons are allowed. We are family-friendly and hope to see lots of families on November 4th!
Fun Stuff
What types of activities are available at the Walk?
We'll have: community resource booths, 360 photo booth, free snacks, bottled water, music with Digital VIbez, Kids fun zone, Kona Ice, face painter, and other activities from our sponsors!
Should I bring food?
That's up to you! We'll have bagels, snack bars, fruit and water.
Donations
Can I donate offline or send in my check/cash donations prior to the Walk?
YES! We accept checks mailed to 5205 Greenwood Avenue, Suite 110, West Palm Beach, FL 33407 - please include the name of the Walker that the donation should be applied to.
Can I donate at the Walk?
Yes - we encourage everyone to donate at the walk! NAMIWalks is designed to be a fun and inspiring day for all, but reaching our fundraising goal is equally important, as it allows us to continue and/or expand important NAMI programs throughout Palm Beach County County!
How can I donate on Walk Day?
You can make a donation the day of at our donation tent. You can also log into www.namiwalks.org/palmbeachcounty to make a donation right from your mobile device! We accept cash, check and credit cards at the walk. Please make checks payable to: NAMIWalks Palm Beach County (If you want the donations to go to an individual or team OTHER THAN YOURSELF, please include it in the subject line!)
T-Shirts
I raised $100 or More....I'm getting a Shirt, Right?
Yes! When you check-in you will receive your t-shirt! Although we do our best to have a large variety of sizes available (from Youth Small through Adult 3XL) it is impossible to predict what the needs will be on Walk Day.
I have 3 people who donated $100 each to me (or my team) - do they get shirts?
No. Shirts are only for individual fundraisers who raise at least $100.
Our team has 5 people and we raised a combined $500, do we get 5 shirts?
No. Shirts are for individual fundraisers who raise at least $100.
