More than 300 Hardin County residents preregistered and participated in this event. Organizers thanked them for their support as well as from more than 100 sponsors and countless donors.
Prior to the start of the walk, an invocation was given by Steve Hellman. This was followed by three featured speakers:

The Ada High School Marching Bulldogs took first place in marching band competition held at Copley High School on Saturday.
Class B and C (based on school enrollment) were combined at this competition and despite being a smaller school and much smaller band, Ada was still able to come away with the first place trophy.
Undeterred by the extremely cold, windy conditions, the band received its first-ever superior rating for music.
