wetwillie Posted May 26, 2014 Posted May 26, 2014 I've been trying to register for a walk on Father's Day in Columbus, Ohio. This is to benefit Gracehaven in Dublin, Ohio. Can anyone tell me how to get registered?
Shafted Posted May 26, 2014 Posted May 26, 2014 If this is another :Walk a Mile in Her Shoes", I'll chalk this up to another slap in the face against men. Shafted, the boots that is! View my gallery here http://www.hhplace.o...afteds-gallery/ or view my heeling thread here http://www.hhplace.org/topic/3850-new-pair-of-boots-starts-me-serious-street-heeling/ - Pm me if you want fashion advice or just need someone to talk to.
Heelster Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 If this is another :Walk a Mile in Her Shoes", I'll chalk this up to another slap in the face against men. Unfortunately, ther are many who seriousely need that slap, but wont be attending. There should be a link off their schedule page that will get you to a registration page. If not, I'd see if Gracehaven has a link to it, You might want to try the mall itself. If they have it as an event happening at their mall, I'm sure they could point you to the all elusive registration crew.

Can anyone tell me how to get registered?Try contacting Gracehaven. Most benefit corporation are pretty helpful with providing registration info. If you still have trouble, you can register on the day of the event.
hhboots Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 Just doing some searches to try to help you out, but it's not listed on the Walk a Mile official calendar, I checked two locations and its not there: http://www.walkamileinhershoes.org/calendar.html#.U4yvZ3lOWUk http://www.eventbrite.com/o/walk-a-mile-in-her-shoes-international-752896641 I found prior year (2012 & 2013) Father's day events listed on the Gracehaven Facebook page, but did not see one for this year.https://www.facebook.com/pages/Gracehaven/43754199583?id=43754199583&sk=events I went to the Gracehaven direct website and the last event listed there is for a 2014 Mother's day walk (past):http://gracehaven.me/news/?category=Events Sorry, I just don't see mention of an upcoming event in Columbus anywhere. I could be wrong, but my guess is perhaps they decided to do a Mother's Day 2014 walk instead of the Father's Day walk as they did the last two years.
wetwillie Posted June 3, 2014 Author Posted June 3, 2014 This the email I got from Gracehaven. The link to register doesn't work. I emailed gracehaven directly but got no response. Walk-A-Mile-In-Her-Shoes It is time again for us to build awareness around a serious issue with our fun, signature event: Walk-A-Mile. As in years past, men, women and children will strap on high heels and walk exactly one mile. Of course, the heels are optional (bring your own or we'll provide) so that everyone can participate, but we really encourage you to "walk the walk!" Three Dates - Three Venues As we continue to grow our Outreach to local kids and our Residential Program awaits licensure, we decided to make this year bigger than ever by offering three different dates and venues. Mother's Day Walk - Saturday, May 10th @ Grace Polaris Church What better way to celebrate mom than by raising awareness for the well-being of Central Ohio children? Special silent auction items just for mom! Father's Day Walk - Saturday, June 14th @ Glacier Ridge Metro Park Dads, bring the whole family for a great outdoor walk and express your care for the sons and daughters who are victimized throughout our area. Back-to-School Walk - Saturday, September 20th @ Wolfe Park Students, start the new school year off right by making a stand (or taking a walk) for the most critical human rights issue of our day. All walks begin at 9 AM, registration at 8 AM Team Up - Sponsor - Sign Up We've made participation easier than ever! We have reduced our fees to involve as many people as possible (we'd love to have 1,500 walkers this year!) Adults - $25 Students/Children - $10 Teams (5 walkers or more) - $75 or $15/person We also have opportunities for sponsorships and donations. Contact us at walkamile@gracehaven.me.

Some of them, I registered on the day of the event. You shouldn't have any issues with showing up on the day of the event and registering there.
