Important Walk Day Information Below
Parking and Entrance
Parking is available in the lot outside of the Secrest Arboretum Welcome Center. You will need to walk past the Welcome Center towards the Miller Pavillion. There will be signage directing you to the correct location. When you enter the walk path you will reach the registration table. If you haven't already registered, you will need to stop there to register. If you are already registered you can continue back toward Miller Pavillion where the festivities will be taking place. Please make sure to stop at the registration tent regardless because this year you will receive your Modern Hearing Solutions check-in bracelet.
