Francisco Coakley is hosting a walkathon on the Franklin Town Common on Saturday, September 19th from 10am-12pm. The walkathon supports Walk 4 Wells by Plan International. By raising a certain amount of money we can pay for a well to be installed in a third world community. The price of registration is $5 for participants 10 and older and $3 for children under the age of ten. Additional donations are more than welcome. Participants are encouraged to walk three miles (the average distance a woman or child, in third world communities, has to walk to get water every day carrying 44 pounds).  To learn more go to walk4wells.org.

Please check in at the registration table at the event to pay the registration fee.
