A Walk to Remember is a tribute from family & friends for those that have been lost to substance use disorder. We encourage participants to bring a picture of their family member to the event. Listen to the race announcement / community event that our friends at KUAF featured on their community spotlight. Our race directors also went on the local Good Day NWA show to discuss the race in 2021. Check it out here
