A Walk for Julie - Memorial Walk/5k Run

A Walk for Julie — 2nd Annual Memorial Walk

An Incredible Beginning.

After an incredible first year, A Walk for Julie is back for 2027!

In 2026, more than 250 family members, friends, and supporters came together alongside 65 generous sponsors to raise over $30,000 in Julie's memory.

Through the West Orange Firefighters Foundation, that generosity helped support individuals and families facing difficult times, as well as wonderful organizations including Wigs on Wheels, Knitting for Cancer, K9s For Warriors, and Minette's Angels, and the CJ Waldron Foundation

This year, we're excited to continue that spirit of giving by supporting Toms River East Little League (TRELL), helping provide local children with opportunities to play baseball, build friendships, and be part of a team.

Julie was a devoted wife, loving mother, cherished family member, friend, and the very best Aunt JuJu. She loved the beach, the ocean, and Barnegat Lighthouse, but nothing meant more to her than her family and the people she loved.

Join us once again at the Jersey Shore for a relaxed, family-friendly 1.5-mile walk along the Seaside Boardwalk to celebrate Julie's life and bring our community together for another wonderful day.

Following the walk, the celebration continues at the Beachcomber Bar & Grill with pizza, drinks, music, tricky tray raffles, a 50/50 drawing, and plenty of good company.

Registration Includes:

Adults (21+) — $60: Event T-shirt, one complimentary drink ticket, unlimited pizza, and a door prize ticket.
Ages 6–20 — $25: Event T-shirt, unlimited pizza, and a door prize ticket.
Children 5 & Under — FREE: Walk participation and pizza. T-shirt not included.
Whether you joined us last year or are attending for the first time, we hope you'll come out, bring your family and friends, and help us make our second year even more successful.

Life is Good.
