Monthlong walk
to raise awareness

“Walk for a Child,” raising awareness about child abuse and money to help local abused children, is planned for September.

The event, organized by Court Appointed Special Advocates of the 8th Judicial District, will begin at 9 a.m. Thursday at South Park in Junction City.

Participants are being asked to walk 100 miles during the month. Only the first walk will be as a group.

After that, each walker will log miles online. Prizes will be given to the top team, top individual, and random participants.

Registration is online at www.charityfootprints.com/walkforachild.
