Come Cheer Us On!!!

We would love all the support we can get this weekend! We will be decked out in PURPLE (the Queen's favorite ROYAL color!) and there will be 10 of us with our Camelback fanny packs, t-shirts with crowns, purple bandanas, and purple mardi gras beads. Can't miss us!

I never thought I would do this on the "world wide web" but feel free to call or text me at:
404-667-2629 if you are looking for us. We can't guarantee that we'll be able to stop for a long time, but hopefully we can quickly say hello and get a boost of encouragement and energy!

Closing Ceremony:
After three days and 60 miles, participants will take a final and incredibly emotional victory walk into the Closing Ceremony. Friends, family and supporters should arrive at the Closing Ceremony site at least one hour early to get the best view of the program. We encourage you to carpool or take public transportation. Not only is it better for the planet, but it will help lessen traffic congestion for everyone.

All walkers and crew members should remain in the Participant Holding Area where they will receive a victory shirt, cheer on fellow walkers and crew members and celebrate one last time together before their dramatic victory walk. The Participant Holding Area is CLOSED to spectators. If you wish to meet with a participant before the Ceremony begins, please have them meet you at the Closing Ceremony site. All participants must return to the Holding Area no later than 4:30 p.m. in order to join the victory walk.

Don't forget to continue the spirit of kindness we'll be building on the 3-Day throughout and beyond the Closing Ceremony!

  1. Go Queen Jean's Supreme Team! Go Abby, Brittany, Nancy, Kate - and all you other brave people out there who are supporting the Howe family! I bet you are sore and tired. I wonder if you feel like quitting? I hope you are making forward progress and cheering each other on. I've been thining of you all weekend - we're cheering for you here in Athens! You are all brave and strong - and have raised a huge sum of money for this cause. The Queen herself would be impressed! You all take care and happy walking. Love from Athens - Jen, Taylor, Lauren and Brett, too.
