You will still be able to remember your loved ones affected by suicide this month during the Walk of Hope in Sturgeon Bay, albeit from a different place on a different date. The Prevent Suicide Door County Walk for Hope has been rescheduled for September 27th from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. The event will step off from the Sawyer Park Pavilion and take walkers across the Maple/Oregon Street Bridge and towards the city’s downtown on 3rd Avenue before walking across the bay on the Michigan Street Bridge before heading back towards the pavilion. The original event was supposed to take place on Monday at Martin park, but it had to be canceled due to heavy rains. The money raised by the event goes to fund volunteer training, print materials, and other activities.
