The "Breezy Bonnet" Stride & Stroke (Walk, Paint, Picnic, & Play!)

You’re Invited: A Day of Healing, Connection & Celebration

Join us for a special community gathering, nestled between Mother’s Day and Father’s Day--a time that can be difficult for those grieving a parent, child, spouse, or loved one. Whether you're healing, supporting someone who is, or simply seeking connection, this event offers comfort, compassion, and renewal.

Come as you are--BONNET AND ALL! Bring someone with you: your parent, grandparent, child, a friend, or your whole support circle.
