Habitat 7 Rivers’ 25th annual Spring Walk to Build will take place Sunday, April 29 in Topsham and Brunswick at 2 p.m. The organization’s largest fundraiser will begin at Mid-Coast Presbyterian Church, 84 Main Street in Topsham, and the anticipated 100 walkers will walk the three-mile route. Mid-way, walkers will arrive at First Parish Church on Maine Street in Brunswick where snacks and water will be available for walkers before they begin the return trip to Topsham. The course is on sidewalks and is family-friendly.

“This is a very important Habitat event that the community can help support. To all the volunteers who donate their time, the enthusiastic walkers and their friends, colleagues and relatives who sponsor them with donations, and our generous business sponsors, we say thank you.
