The 13th Annual Boyertown Area Unity Walk to be held Saturday, Oct. 8, at 2 p.m. promises to be a fun time for all ages.

This year everyone is encouraged to walk for their favorite 501(c) 3 non-profit organization. Each registered walking team of 5 or more walkers will be placed in a drawing for one of 8 $100 donations to the non-profit of their choice! So bring your family and friends to walk as a team for unity and your favorite non-profit!

Pre-registration team forms are available at the United Way of Boyertown Area Office at 39B East Philadelphia Ave. in Boyertown or at their booth at the Fall Festival prior to the Walk. The Walk will start at the entrance to the Boyertown Community Park on south Madison Street at 2PM. The walk is a short 1.5 mile stroll through parts of Boyertown past the “Diversity Mural” at Rita’s Water Ice.

As last year, the Walk is being held in conjunction with Boyertown’s Fall Festival running from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. where all ages will find games, music, crafters, food and many other things to do. Plan to make it a family day out while participating in the Unity Walk around Boyertown. The rain date is Sunday, Oct. 9.

Thanks to Unity Walk sponsors Petri Tile & Marble, the United Way of Boyertown Area, staffs at Boyertown Junior High East and West, staffs at Boyertown and NHUF Elementary schools, BASD Administrators and Pottstown Area Health & Wellness Foundation. Everyone from the surrounding community is invited to come and join with your friends and neighbors to further demonstrate that the Boyertown area is a welcoming and accepting environment in which to live, learn and work.
