HIGHLIGHTS OF YEARS PAST
Our first "Walk to Remember" was held on June 3, 2000. It was a great day with more than 80 participants and over $6000 was raised.

Walkers and gathered at the Hampshire Regional YMCA and traveled to nearby Child's Park in Northampton. They came from far and wide and from all age groups, enjoying the beautiful weather the morning after a huge rainstorm hit the area. There were hugs, smiles and even a few tears as we circled the inner trail of pastoral and serene Child's Park.

Many thanks go out to our sponsors, who, without their help, this event would not have been possible. Many thanks to CVS Pharmacy, Northampton Area Pediatrics, Pacific Printing, Florence Savings Bank, and Hampshire Regional YMCA!

The 2nd annual "Walk to Remember" was held on Saturday, May 19, 2001. It was a glorious day to gather and walk through beautiful Child's Park.

Garden family members, friends and community supporters alike, commented on the serene and peaceful stroll as we made our three loops around the park and returned to the Hampshire Regional YMCA, Northampton.

Special thanks to our donors this year: Northampton Area Pediatrics, Kidsports, Ahearn Funeral Home, Pacific Printing, Florence Savings Bank, Hampshire Regional YMCA.

Garden family members, friends and community supportersEven the inhabitants of the park got into the spirit of the walk!

The 3rd annual "Walk to Remember" was held on Sunday, June 2, 2002. On this windy but glorious day, over 80 people gathered to walk and celebrate the merging of the garden with the Hampshire Regional YMCA. The Garden officially became a Y program and everyone is thrilled!
