1st Annual Westmoreland Parks 5k Run/Walk

We are thrilled to announce that we are bringing Wyatt's Walk and Run back this year to benefit Empower Me Center!!! Empower Me Center has made such an incredible impact on Wyatt and our family over the last several years! They provide much needed recreational and educational services for our local special needs community through a variety of year round programs and activities. Their summer day camp is something Wyatt looks forward to all year long, and is a Godsend for working parents like us! Empower Me Center gives children and families like ours opportunities to meaningfully participate in the community with their peers. The Empower Me Center team is truly like a family to us, and I don't know how we would make it without them. With that said, there are so many other families that need this support and the ability to be a part of this growing organization and family! Empower Me Center is in the process of beginning construction of their state of the art facility here in Wilson County,

and we couldn't be more excited. This will include a huge recreational facility, sports complex, and eventually multi-living facility offering housing opportunities. Through raising a child with special needs, our eyes have truly been opened to the dire need for facilities and services like this. We have been fortunate enough to be involved with Empower Me since Wyatt was very young, but the truth is that without this facility, they just cannot meet all of the needs of all of the families that are out there. We want to change that! We want to give all individuals and families that are affected by a disability a place to feel and call home. A place where they can be their selves and truly live their best lives. Please join us on June 20th to support this incredible organization and their mission for the future!
