About Lory's Place:
Since the opening of Lory’s Place bereavement programs in 2004, we have been honored to support over 50,000 children and adults after the death of a significant person. Our programs reach beyond our facility doors offering over 60 peer support groups in Allegan, Berrien, Cass and Van Buren Counties.

About this Race:
This is the 20th anniversary of the Lory's Place Run, Walk and Rock to benefit Lory's Place, a Grief Healing and Education Center of Corewell Health South(formerly Spectrum Health Lakeland) affiliate.  Every year, Lory’s Place is honored and grateful for the community’s support of Run Walk Rock. All of the programs and services at Lory’s Place are available at no charge. That means that no child or adult is ever turned away because of an inability to pay. The children, adults, and families who are part of Lory’s Place join us in expressing deepest gratitude to you for supporting our mission of grief healing.
