Additional Information

The Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep (NILMDTS) Remembrance Walk – Our Journey Together will take place Saturday, October 24th, and is a chance for families who have suffered the loss of a child, to come together to remember and celebrate those short lives.

It’s also a chance for these families to come together in this difficult journey and help educate the community about this difficult issue. The NILMDTS Remembrance Walk will be hosted locally by Lynne Port an Area Coordinator for Denver-based international non-profit Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep, an organization that provides the gift of remembrance photography to families who have experienced the death of a baby. Walk proceeds will benefit this non-profit organization.

During the walk, families will participate in a variety of remembrance activities, including a balloon release to be followed by a .9 mile reflective walk around Mill Pond in Austin.

More information about the walk is available online at http://nilmdtsremembrance.org. Families that register prior to September 5 can have their angel baby(ies) names imprinted on the Walk t-shirt and in the program book.
