SOUTHFIELD, MICH (WXYZ) — Take Steps for 2021 is going to be a hybrid event that allows our community to come together and celebrate all that we have accomplished, connect, and enjoy the day dedicated to our incredible community! Money raised will benefit the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation.
While this years Take Steps won’t look like a completely traditional walk there will be many aspects of the event that are traditional and “normal” while taking measures to make sure everyone is safe and healthy as we come out of the pandemic. This opportunity is a step in the direction of getting back to “normal” and we hope you enjoy the event, and we look forward to being back to a traditional walk in 2022!
