Fifth annual Herron Memorial Bike & Walk

Honor fallen bicyclists and pedestrians. Each year, friends and families gather to remember loved ones who died in traffic while biking or walking.

The walk and ride is donatation-based and family-themed. All donations are made to Dick Herron Memorial Fund, which funds scholarships for Chicago high school graduates.

Nearly 200 bicyclists and pedestrians are needlessly killed each year in Chicago, and the fifth annual Herron Memorial Bike and Walk is a time to come together and transform grief into a positive future.

Celebrate the victims’ lives and transform our future into a brighter one. Donations can be made to the Dick Herron Memorial Fund by calling or e-mailing Arline Welty, director of development, at (312) 427-3325, ext. 237.
