Walk for Wellness kid's event

"Today is a nice day out in Milwaukee" said eight-year-old, Andre Parker. Parker is just one of the about 700 kids that attended the 15th annual Walk for Wellness at Kadish Park. The event organized by the United Neighborhood Centers of Milwaukee (UNCOM). The event was for UNCOM youth. The kids came to the park wearing different colored t-shirts. Those shirts identified which community agency the child attends. Eight different agencies make up the program. "We get to do our mile walk, we get to talk about nutrition, we get to do cool fun things together, and this is our second year doing our kick ball match, so the older kids are really excited" said Neighborhood House ‘s Associate Program Director, Niki Espy.
