WELCOME TO THE 23RD ANNUAL WALK FOR AUTISM! The Bangor Waterfront is a great location for our walk, and we are very pleased with some of the amenities it offers. The view from this location is spectacular. The actual walk is only one mile and its all paved or sidewalks. There will be volunteers stationed along the route to offer help if needed. Our theme this year is Star Wars and we encourage everyone to join on the fun with a costume if you happen to have one! All kids will be receiving a give-away that will be sure to please!
* REGISTRATION starts at 10:30 am with the walk starting at 12 noon. Look for the tall flag with the word registration on it. Please come to the registration table to check in. If you registered prior to April 8th, pick up your t-shirt.
* PARKING: There is a small parking lot to the right of the event on Front Street and there are another 2 parking lots far to the left on Front Street. There is also street parking.
