In recognition of National Nurses Week, Horizon Health will sponsor its annual Twilight Walk honoring all nurses on Wednesday, May 10, at 6 pm, on the Edgar County Courthouse lawn.
The walk is free and is a tribute to all active, retired, and deceased nurses. Participants can purchase a luminary for $3 each to honor a nurse/or nurses of their choice, which will be displayed during the walk. Luminaries can be purchased at MyHorizonHealth.org/Twilight through Friday, May 5. Vendors, including Stagecoach and Daisy Mae’s, will be selling food and drinks from 5 to 7 pm.
Luminary sales help fund Horizon Health’s Nursing Foundation Scholarships. For more information about the Twilight Walk, contact Kyra Graham at KGraham@MyHorizonHealth.org or 217-466-4379.
