Open Arms Domestic Violence & Rape Crisis Services proudly presents the 6th Annual Walk A Mile In Her Shoes®, sponsored by The Union Bank Company.  The event will be held on Saturday, April 26 at Riverside Park.  Hancock County men, women and boys will walk one mile in women’s high heeled shoes to raise awareness and educate the community about domestic violence and sexual assault.   

We are seeking individual walkers, business & organization teams and volunteers for the event.  Sign up is available online at www.openarmsfindlay.org.  We also have the option to become a Virtual Walker!  Registration for the event begins at 10:30am, with an opening ceremony at 11:30 a.m.   

This is a family-friendly event with a free Kids Zone.  The Kids Zone will feature face painting, arts and crafts tables, an inflatable bounce house and Spongebob himself will be there!  Food vendors, massage stations and sponsor areas will be set up throughout Riverside Park.  Fantastic prizes and awards will be given during the Awards Ceremony immediately following the walk.
