The morning begins with stretching and mindfulness yoga at 7:30 a.m.
At 8 a.m. the full Day of Resilience experience begins with DJ Sinna-G kicking off the 5th Annual “The Hero’s Journey” 5K Run/Walk led by survivor Zack Golditch. 5K participants who are 21 or older will receive a complimentary beer tasting wristband.
From 8 a.m. to 12 p.m., enjoy live chalk artists, view the memorial sculpture, participate in yoga / healing art activities/wellness experiences or take a garden tour — all while enjoying live music, food, our signature beer fest, a dedicated sober space and a traditional lemonade stand honoring one of the youngest angels.
Founded in the aftermath of the 2012 mass shooting, the 7/20 Memorial Foundation supports survivors and advocates for communities affected by violence.
