Important- March for Babies Walk Day information

Hello Family Teams!

We really appreciate all of you and all of the effort you have put into your fundraising campaigns this year. We really need your help! Please reach out to all of your team members and tell them to keep sending those emails and letters.

! Parking & Transportation!
· We’ve just received word from DART that things are changing slightly. You no longer need DART passes to ride the rail and shuttle busses on walk day, April 18th. Transportation will be running the exact same way. Just let the rail station know that you’re with the March for Babies event and you’ll have no trouble getting on. Nothing has changed, except now you don’t need the piece of paper to get on!If you already have DART passes, you do not need to return them.
· Dallas Police will be issuing citations this year to unauthorized vehicles parked in designated No Parking Zones around the March for Babies event site. Please contact your Family Team members to inform them of this and encourage them to use the DART rail to get to our event shuttles. The rails & shuttles are very stroller/ wagon friendly!
