On the day of the Walk look for the Tom Shaw Foundation Tent and bring your paid receipt, if you are preregistered, just sign in and receive your goodies. Please be at Good News Brewery by 8:30 a.m.​ The course will be roughly 2.5 miles, with fun patriotic displays along the marked course. Plenty of water will be available with volunteers along the way for you to count on.

​The 2023 Charity recipient is Caring for Kids. An organization dedicated to supporting children in the City of St. Louis and St. Louis County who have urgent, unmet needs due to abuse, neglect, or being in an at-risk situation.

By collaborating closely with the St. Louis City and County Family Courts and other referring agencies, they address the immediate needs of these children, often within the crucial first 72 hours of request. They understand the significance of providing basic essentials, such as beds, bedding, clothing, and school supplies for those kids in need. Through their concerted efforts, they strive to ensure that these children receive the necessary support and resources they require to thrive in a safe, stable, and nurturing environment.
