Participants walk in teams, aiming to keep at least one member walking at all times. Participants can enjoy a variety of entertainment to keep them energized throughout the night, including line dancing, sumo wrestling, a food eating contest and a trash fashion show. There will also be performances by the Belles and Chimes, the dance team and the gospel choir. Free food will be available from Chipotle, Rita’s, Papa John’s, Sam’s Bagels and more.
