There are just 10 days before the Pediatric Interim Care Center’s “Walk for the Babies” on Saturday, Oct. 5, 2024.

The Walk for the Babies is a fundraising walkathon for the Kent-based Pediatric Interim Care Center, the only facility providing transitional care for drug-exposed infants in Washington State. 

To participate, register for free and create a fundraising page where you can invite family and friends to make donations support your walk and the babies at PICC.

As a thank you for registering, you’ll receive a free Walk for Babies T-shirt and be entered in our fundraising competition for hundreds of dollars in prizes.  

“We are grateful to Kent Station Shopping Center for hosting the walk again this year,” organizers said.

The walkathon will start with t-shirt pick-up, face painting, and on-site registration at 9:30 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 5, and the walk will begin at 10:30 a.m. on the Kent Station plaza.

The family-friendly 2.8K route will follow 4th Avenue, passing PICC, and then loop around downtown Kent to finish back at Kent Station.

When walkers return, Duke’s Seafood will dish up their famous clam chowder and prizes will be awarded. Participants who cannot attend the event are welcome to walk with family or teammates with a route and time of their own choosing.

“There’s fun, fitness, and prizes ahead, so let’s Walk for the Babies!  Best of all, you’ll be giving drug-exposed infants the care they need to fully recover and thrive.”  

Sign-up for free now on Walk4PICC.com or register at the event for $25.

T-shirt pick-up and registration opens at 9:30 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 5, 2024 at Kent Station Shopping Center.

It’s a fun morning of family fitness, face painting, and fabulous prizes. We’d love to see you there!
