A note from the Northwest Indiana Walk Committee:
The Northwest Indiana Walk committee is excited to announce that we will be having the NW Indiana Walk on Sunday, October 6th this year, as we have worked with Wicker Memorial Park to reserve the entire park for this date! This will ideally accommodate for better parking, more space, etc!
We hope that this creates a safe and enjoyable experience for our awesome Northwest Indiana Walkers! Thank you for the love that you all have poured into this important community event over the years! We cannot wait for 2024 with you all!
