Mission Walk & Picnic FAQ:

 

Do I have to walk the entire 5K?  
The route for the Walk involves two trips around the lake.  We invite you to do what you can and step off if you need to do so.  It’s a pleasant walk in God’s beautiful world.  

Do I need to walk to attend?
Nope!  We welcome those of all levels of mobility.  We’re happy to have everyone come together to celebrate what God is doing among us.  We just ask that everyone do their best to support your church’s fundraising efforts.

Can I bring my pet?
Yes you can!  Belmont Lake State Park requires pets to be on a leash.  

Can I fundraise for repairs or capital improvement projects?
No - The District Mission Walk & Picnic is designed to help your church to directly serve the community in your context.  Let the community see how much you love them with the love of Christ!  

How do I tell you about any dietary restrictions?
When individuals register with your team, there is a place to tell us about any dietary restrictions.

Is there a fee for parking?
NYS Parks charges $8 per vehicle for parking.

Are there other facilities nearby?
Bathrooms, playgrounds, vending machines and paddleboat / kayak rentals are all available at Belmont Lake State Park.

Should I bring my own water bottles?
While we will have water for refilling water bottles, all participants are encouraged to bring their own water bottles to help us preserve the environment.
