The sixth annual Pacific Northwest SMA Walk-n-Roll comes to Auburn’s Game Farm Park on Sunday, Sept. 29.

Registration begins at 10:30 a.m., with the benefit walk to follow at noon at the park, 3030 R St. SE. The walk route is less than a mile, paved and wheelchair/stroller accessible.

Proceeds support the search for a treatment and cure for spinal muscular atrophy, a group of inherited diseases that cause muscle damage and weakness.

The walk includes food, music, face painting, games, balloon sculpting and other festivities.

A professional photographer will be available to shoot individual and family shots. Representatives from Party Lite and Pampered Chef will have products for purchase with donations being made to the walk. Lunch is available for purchase.

To be guaranteed a T-Shirt, you must be registered by Thursday, Sept. 12.

Last year the event raised more than $12,000.

Volunteers are welcome.
