About the Event

Globally, the average distance a person has to travel to get potable water is 3.5 miles. Join us as we walk up to 3.5 miles to raise awareness about the importance of access to the sacred, life-giving element of water.

We will walk starting a 9am at Hartshorne Park's Battery Loop (1402 Portland Rd. Highlands, NJ 07732). We will meet in the parking lot area with bagels and coffee and then walk 2 loops. Join Waterspirit for the full 3.5 miles (2 loops) walk or come join for as long as you can! Each loop should take about 45 minutes.

Can't join Waterspirit on June 13? Sign up and walk on your own or create your own team of walkers and walk ANYWHERE and ANYTIME for water.

Set your goal, share your progress with your friends & family, and celebrate the spring by getting outside for a good cause! Your team of supporters can use your special link to donate as you walk. Don't forget to tag #WaterspiritWalkForWater when you share this event on social media!

All proceeds from the Walk for Water will benefit Waterspirit. Thank you for supporting our eco-spiritual programming and clean water advocacy by participating in this fundraiser. Learn more about Waterspirit at http://www.waterspirit.org .

About Highlands

Learn more about the host city, Highlands.

Highlands is a borough in northern Monmouth County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey. A historic waterfront community located on the Raritan Bay within the Raritan Valley region, this scenic borough is a commuter town of New York City in the New York metropolitan area. As of the 2020 United States census, the borough's population was 4,621, a decrease of 384 (−7.7%) from the 2010 census count of 5,005, which in turn reflected a decline of 92 (−1.8%) from the 5,097 counted in the 2000 census. The eastern part of the town is on a high bluff that overlooks Sandy Hook and Sandy Hook Bay, the entrance to New York Harbor, and the Atlantic Ocean, from which the borough derives its name. Atop this bluff are the Navesink Twin Lights.
