Event Description

This is an event that seeks to raise awareness for mental health, highlighting the importance of eliminating the stigma surrounding mental illness and suicide, and seeks to give hope! 

We're coming together to show each other support and walk (or run) with a common purpose of giving hope for those fighting the battle and for those who have loved and lost.

Join us in Nebraska City's beautiful historical Arbor Lodge State Park on Monday, May 27, 2024, at 9 a.m. to kick off the event. Walk or run at your own pace on our pre-determined route through Arbor Lodge... or blaze your own path! The Shine Your Light Mental Health Awareness Run is not timed or distanced; stay and participate as long as you are able. We will have supportive literature and a raffle. Support staff will be on hand until 11 a.m. 

Sponsors of the event include: Lind Lawn Service, Honeywell, Adkins Signs, Arbor Psychiatric and Wellness, Merz Ink, Dollar Fresh, Boutique in the City, The Local Shop.
