32-mile cross-county walk to raise funds for charity

On May 30, Supervisor Pete Candland and Rise Up Prince William will take part in the 3rd annual Walk for Prince William.

The walk, according to a release, is a 32-mile walk across the county ā€“ beginning in Woodbridge and ending in Haymarket.

The purpose of the walk is to raise funds for several area charities, including the Cooperative Council of Ministries, the Haymarket Food Pantry, BARN, Inc., and the NOVA Veterans Association.

For residents interesting in donating to the event, several groceries stores will have displays on site with collection boxes for donations, over the next few weeks. And on the day of the walk, there will be additional volunteers at local stores, providing lists of needed donations, said a release.

ā€œAs Gainesville District Supervisor, Iā€™m always amazed and humbled by the generosity and spirit of community service that exists in Prince William County.Ā  We have many folks who give of their time to serve others within the community.Ā  I want to take each opportunity to recognize the volunteers and non-profits that enhance the quality of life in our county and help them out in any way I can,ā€ said Candland.
