Online registration is $30 and will be available until Friday, September 29th, at 1:00 PM EST.  Please click "Register Now!" and follow the prompts to register online. Anyone 12 or older should register as an adult.

Participants that register online will automatically receive an online participant/fundraising page. Participants (adult) will also receive a WFO shirt and bag at the Walk. Please note:  If you do not wish to receive an online fundraising page or are unable to register online, please see the next section, "Registration at the Walk." 


Sizes are available on a first come, first serve basis, and while supplies last! 

Fundraising

We encourage all of our participants to be fundraisers and help us meet our event fundraising goal. Please utilize our online fundraising tools to help meet your fundraising goal and/or to invite family and friends to join you at the Walk. You may also sync your fundraising efforts to a Facebook Fundraiser registering. It's the easiest way to fundraise!    

Also, while raising money for a great cause, you can win some great prizes, receive achievement badges on your online participant page, and a trophy will be awarded to the top fundraising individual and top fundraising team at the Walk!  

Check out our Resource Center for a list of fundraising prizes, social media graphics, fundraising tips, and more!
 

Registration at the Walk

Registration will be available at the Walk for $35. On-site registration will open at 10:00 AM. Cash, money order, or check will be accepted as payment for on-site registration.  

Plan to register at the Walk? You can still be a fundraiser and win prizes! To collect pledges in person, a printable pledge form is available here. Pledge forms may be turned in at the Walk and will be mailed to the National office on your behalf.  

FREE Child Registration and Coloring Contest

Register children using the paper registration form, which can be accessed in the "Resources" section in your Participant Dashboard after registering online.  Children will need to be accompanied by a parent that is also registered. We offer an optional coloring contest on the paper form. Please note: If you wish for your child to be entered into the coloring contest, please print and complete the coloring form prior to the event.  A prize will be awarded to the winner. 

Child participants will receive a bag and a free coloring/activity book while supplies last.
