Everything you need to know for Walk Day and MORE!!

Q. This is my first time participating in the walk. What can I expect on Walk day?
A. Walk day is a time to celebrate and honor those who live with type 1 diabetes every day. The Walk site will open at 8:00 am for registration, T-shirt pick up and pre-walk entertainment. The family friendly walk kicks off at 9:00 am. If you would like to participate in the T-shirt contest, please bring one of your shirts to the registration tent for the T-shirt contest. We will announce the winners after the Walk, approximately 10:45 am.

REGISTRATION AND FUNDRAISING
Q. Do all members of my walk team need to register online, including children?
A. Yes! Registering online gives you access to a number of great fundraising resources and lets us keep you updated on the latest JDRF and Walk info. It also gives us an idea of how many people to expect at the Walk, so we can plan ahead for refreshments, T-shirts, and volunteer staffing.

Q. What are the fundraising minimums?
A. All registered guests are invited to participate in the walk. Each walker who raises $100 will receive a JDRF One Walk T-shirt on walk day.

Q. I would like to turn in donations before walk day. How can I do this?
Donations will be accepted at any time in person or by mailing to the JDRF office at 9700 Philips Highway, # 106 Jacksonville, FL 32256
