Join us Saturday, October 19th for our 7th annual Glow Walk and invite your family and friends!
October is spina bifida awareness month, the international color representing SB is yellow, and with our yellow glow sticks glowing brightly, our event is a celebration! This is a fundraiser for SBWIS and we appreciate any and all efforts to help raise money that will support the services we offer. With neon colors, glowing and LED lights illuminate the evening with our our fun walk/roll at Memorial Park in Neenah, Wisconsin. We will gather and walk together to honor kids and adults living with spina bifida - it is time to be GLOWING BRIGHT together!
Important deadlines, event rules, and information:
***After last year’s event, although fun and amazing with over 200 people in attendance, our event drew some attention that caused questions from the City of Neenah, resulting in changes to what we can offer. Your compliance is important and appreciated. Thank you.***
Glowing Bright for SB is on Saturday, October 19th at Memorial Park in Neenah, WI.
The deadline for an event shirt included with your registration is midnight, Tuesday October 1st. No exceptions. You won’t want to miss this deadline to receive a long-sleeve black shirt with our Glow Walk logo and the names of the SB members we are especially celebrating!
