Good Help's Walk to Mary pilgrimage set for May 3

The second annual Walk to Mary pilgrimage will be May 3.

The pilgrimage, which supports Catholic education for children, will start at the National Shrine of St. Joseph at St. Norbert Abbey in De Pere and follow a 21-mile route to the Shrine of Our Lady of Good Help in Champion.

The inaugural Walk to Mary event last year had nearly 500 registered participants.

Registration for Walk to Mary is being taken online only at walktomary.com. The registration fees are $25 for adults and $10 for students — children 4 and younger are free — and include a sandwich-style lunch box, a Walk to Mary T-shirt and a pilgrims packet full of pilgrimage souvenirs.

New this year is the “Walk with the Children.” Pilgrims can join the walk for the last 2 miles — geared to children, elderly and those who cannot walk long distances. The flat fee for families to participate is $25.

The registration deadline is April 27.

Except I'm supposed to run a race in La Crosse that day...  Hmmm.
