There is no admission and the event runs from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. on October 12 at George Washington Park in Centralia. Service providers are encouraged to attend so they can be entered in a raffle for a gift from the community.
Drug addiction and mental illness do not just impact to user/victim. The true damage can echo to families, communities and society. Daily there are those among us that serve to help the community and we want to say thank you to them for doing their job. We also want to create a space where people can come together and change the narrative around these issues.
