Walk for Life: “Moms Rock!”

October 17, 2026

Join us to show Jamestown that we think moms rock!

When:

Oct 17, 2026. 10:30 registration. 12:00 Walk.

Where:

Start and end at OCC.

560 West 3rd St. This year we will begin registration at 10:30 at OCC. At 12:00, we’ll be walking through town and back to OCC. This will allow us to be seen by the public. The more people know about us, the more we can help those in need.

Join the fun:

Bring your kiddos at 10:30 for balloon animals, a bubble station and sidewalk chalk. We’ll have food trucks available for lunch purchases, and we have some unique challenges planned as well!

Participate:

You can participate by picking up a sponsor sheet from your church or Options Care Center. Or click the QR code below to register. (Call 664-5459 or email jandersen@optionscarecenter.com with questions.) Registering online will be super helpful for us, even if you choose to collect sponsors using the papers you can get at your church. HOWEVER, you can also choose to collect sponsors by becoming a fundraiser at the online registration. Then you can just share your link with all your friends!

RESOURCES:

Downloadable Sponsor sheet: WALK FOR LIFE 2026_sponsor page.

Or you can gather sponsors online by clicking “Register” below and then click “become a fundraiser.” It will give you your own link to share!

Spend a few weeks collecting sponsors and bring all sponsors and your sheet to the walk! *NOTE: If cash is given, please do not replace with a check. This makes tax tracking difficult for us. Thank you!
