Here is the plan
Day Celebration : 7:00 am - 5:00 pm
Join for a walk & talk! Walk as many Km's as you like. Every step counts! Come along for some fresh air, good company, and great conversations.
I will be hitting the walk bright and early, starting at 7:00 am through to 5pm, walking for 10 hours to cover the 50 km.
Why? Why not walk 1 km for each of those years and mark it with a challenge that reflects my passion for walking, challenging myself, but most importantly, it's an opportunity for me to connect with all of you.
You are welcome to join anytime for a part of the walk and come back for Part 2 in the evening. There is no obligation to attend the walk if the evening party is more your style!
No Presents, Please! Donations appreciated
The evening celebrations are our treat, and we request no birthday presents please.
There is, however, an optional donation to support the first project that the 'Step into Action Foundation' is planning to fund.
We have created a 12-month, Health & Wellbeing Scholarship that we would like to give out to deserving young people (aged 16- 22) in Western Sydney.
Each annual scholarship will give the recipient a health & wellbeing, fitness and personal development package that will not only support them but supercharge their wellbeing and personal development with vital skills to combat the Youth Mental Health crisis we are facing.
Donations will be gratefully accepted pre walk day as well as throughout the day and evening of the walk.
Details will be posted soon on the new foundation website with a link for donations.
What to wear?
Day:
Whatever you walk best in, being the middle of winter it's likely to be chilly, so definitely bring warm layers and maybe a beanie! Rain, hail or shine Chris will be walking, so please come prepared!
Evening:
Chris is a pretty casual guy so will likely be in jeans and a T-Shirt ( the room will be heated) but you can wear whatever you like! Shorts are fine but so is an evening gown, the choice is yours.
RSVP
Please RSVP or direct any questions to Kerrie on 0403 694 898 or complete the RSVP form below by Sunday 1st June 2025.
If you plan to walk at some stage in the day, please also let us know what approximate time you will be there as it will help with planning the day.
We can't wait to share this special day with you all. Whether you're walking alongside Chris or celebrating into the evening with us, your presence will make this milestone even more meaningful.
Can't wait to celebrate with you!
Kerrie & Chris
