Country music star Jimmy Wayne begins his walk 1/2 way across America at Monroe Harding on New Year’s Day.
Please join us Friday morning at 10 a.m. to give Jimmy Wayne a huge send-off as he begins his “Meet Me Half Way†walk to raise awareness for foster children who are at-risk for homelessness.
Everyone is welcome to join Jimmy for the ceremonial first mile of his walk.
We will begin at the front door of Monroe Harding, head down the driveway to Glendale Lane heading toward Granny White. We’ll cross over Granny White and finally turn left onto Belmont Park Terrace to Harding Place. Jimmy will take it from there as he goes on by himself toward Hwy 70. Many people have expressed interest in walking further but for safety’s sake we are asking everyone to keep it to the first mile. And the city would like for us to remain on the shoulder and in a single file line as much as possible.
See you on the 1st! Happy New Year!

Hello,
I find this whole ordeal intriguing and would like to offer a suggestion to assist in your fund raising efforts. There is a website called chipin.com that utilizes paypal to collect donations making it simpler for people to donate to this cause. You would just put it on the home page of your website for those who wish to donate do so quickly and simply…my sister use to use it when she had a animal shelter – ish effort going on and it worked wonderfully for her. i hope it will help you as well. Good Luck!
