Hello Everyone!
We had an awesome day for our 6th Annual ‘Karen Stedman’ Walk for Warmth on October 6th, 2019. (this year we have officially renamed our walk after the late Karen Stedman, a very big supporter of our program).
Over twenty five hearty people (including two youngsters) and 2 small dogs participated in the 6th Annual Karen Stedman Walk for Warmth.
Not everyone made the whole walk but everyone was game.
We started at Wesley house and proceeded down 5th Avenue to Bay Ridge
We picked up the ferry from Owl's Head park and had a cool trip to pier 11 in Manhattan.
Heading south, we walked around the horn of lower Manhattan hugging the West side all the way to Chelsea.
From Chelsea, we picked up the High Line and then walked to midtown to eat a late lunch.
We garnered interest in our project and explained about The Sleeping Bag Project NYC all along the way.
The day was glorious but there were hints of fall and eventually winter.
We already have calls for our sleeping bags.
Thank you to all the participants whether by walking or donating.
Bless you all.
Jody
