This year’s theme acknowledges how a community of supporters have come together for more than 16 years to help local people touched by cancer through the Lapper fundraising walk.  Our roots grow deep.

Where to park: 

Parking will be available throughout the Brotherhood Office Park. There will be parking coordinators and signage to help you find a spot!

How long is the walk: 

The walking trail is slightly less than a mile. While you are more than welcomed to take more than one lap, it really is your decision! The Survivors Day Celebration featuring food, games, and music for the entire family will begin at 11 a.m.
