About the Event:

Join us for a beautiful autumn walk starting at our Hospice Center in Scarborough and connecting with the Eastern Trail. There will be music, Holy Donuts, prizes, a kids’ scavenger hunt, lawn games, local partner-provided food and beer, and lots of community spirit as we walk the 2.25 or 4.5-mile routes. Together, we can make each step count and raise awareness and funds for hospice care in Maine. Children and leashed dogs are welcome!

What to Expect:
