Wayne Metropolitan Community Action Agency (Wayne Metro) proudly announces its annual Walk for Warmth on Saturday, February 13th, 2016. It'll be held inside Ford Field in downtown Detroit.

The goal of the event is to raise awareness and to keep the heat on for people in Wayne County who are struggling this winter.  The family-friendly event is expected to draw hundreds of concerned citizens, companies and students from schools across the County to take a lap or two around the concourse at Ford Field.

Participants will also have the special opportunity to take part in fun on-field activities including a helmet bounce, field goal kick, target toss, Zumba, a slide and mini locker room tours.

Registration is $20 per person. Event parking is located in the Ford Field Parking Structure Lot 6 on St. Antoine Street for just $4 per car. Participants must enter the arena through Gate G. The first 500 walkers to register will receive an official Walk for Warmth t-shirt.

Walk for Warmth will kick off at 8:30am with a continental breakfast.
