October 15th is National Remembrance Day for families who have experienced the death of a baby. In observance of this day, and in honor of all the babies that are so deeply loved and missed, Sweet Pea Project is holding its First Annual Balloon Release. The event will take place in the grassy field in front of the amphitheater at Long's Park in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. The Sweet Pea Project team will be handing out balloons from 5pm until 5:45pm and the release will take place promptly at 6pm. Come early to ensure time to personalize your balloon. Compostable seed paper will be provided for you to write a small note to your child. The notes will be inserted into the balloons so that when the balloon bursts, the notes will be reclaimed by the earth and sprout wildflowers. We have taken precautions to make sure that this is an eco-friendly event. For this reason we must insist that you do not bring your own balloons. Biodegradable balloons will be provided. There is no cost for this event and registration is not required, but please feel free to drop us a quick note if you plan to attend. |
