WALK INFORMATION
September 24th, 2011 (In Case of Rain events and games will be held indoors. There is NO Raindate.), at Bristol Community College, Fall River, MA. Please join us for the 9th annual Hearts & Hands Walk for Autism and Family Fun Day because it won’t be the same without YOU! The Family Fun Day runs from 9:30AM – 1:30PM. This two mile walk will start from the BCC Common adjacent to parking lot 6. Registration and pledge collection begins at 9:00AM. You do not have to walk to attend the Family Fun Day Events.

If you are coming for The Walk please note that it does not kick off until 11:15AM . Even though there are activities to keep the kids engaged, we ask you to keep the walk start time in mind when thinking about how long your child can wait before the walk begins. The activities run until 1:30PM so there is time for children to take part in the activities after the walk as well as before.

For children and other family members who are unable to walk please note that all activities will continue to run during the walk.

Please make sure to pick up a Walk Program. It will contain:

• the walk route
• location of the restrooms
• a list raffle items
• a price list for the store
• other important information

NO PETS PLEASE
Although we love pets, we respectfully ask you to PLEASE leave your dogs home this year (the exception of course being service animals). This is for the safety of your dogs as well as all those attending the walk and family fun day. Many people with Autism are afraid of dogs, and this day is for families to have a wonderful time. Thank you for understanding!!

NO SMOKING
Bristol Community College is a tobacco-free campus. The use of tobacco is prohibited within college buildings, walkways, and on college owned property. This policy prohibits the use of any oral tobacco product. Smoking will only be permitted in private vehicles parked on campus.
