Climb Out of the Darkness® is the world’s largest event raising awareness of maternal mental illnesses like postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety & OCD, postpartum PTSD, postpartum psychosis, bipolar/peripartum onset, and pregnancy depression and anxiety.
Join Team Hershey PA for the 2nd annual Climb Out of the Darkness on Saturday, Jun 23, 2018 from 10am-2pm at Shank Park. Shank Park is located at 781 Bullfrog Valley Road
Hummelstown, PA 17036. We will meet at the large playground/pavilion and after some quick introductions and a welcome circle, we will begin our “climb” at 10:30am. We plan to get back to play area between 12-1230 and do a “bring your own picnic lunch” at the pavilion where we can all chat and enjoy one another’s company. The path is paved and stroller friendly. Feel free to bring a wagon or other types of wheels the kids can use to enjoy the walking portion.
We will have Starbucks coffee, door prizes (featuring a Hershey gift basket, D?Terra essential oils, fitness classes, thirty-one) water, cookies, swag bags and more!
