Memory Stones
This project is best for kids ages five and up, and usually takes 30 to 40 minutes to complete. The goal is to provide you and the child with an opportunity to create an object (a diploma, heart, flower, train, etc.) that will serve to honor, remind and connect you to the person who died.

Materials you will need include:
- Oven-baked clay (Fimo or Sculpey)
- Tools for cutting,shaping and writing in clay
- Paint and brushes (optional)

Instructions:
1. Mold the clay into a meaningful shapes. These will become memory stones.

2. Write words or add details to the clay that are important.

3. Bake the clay memory stones according to package directions.

4. Decorate the memory stones with paint if desired.

4.Share your memory stones with each other.

Join The Dougy Center for the Regence Grand Floral Walk

Walk Where Roses Tread—the same path as the floral floats, marching bands and Rose Festival Princesses—the Grand Floral Parade route! Join us for the Regence Grand Floral Walk, Saturday, June 11 at 9:30 a.m. Proceeds from the event will support The Dougy Center.

Route
The four-mile walk route is also the route of the 2011 Spirit Mountain Casino Grand Floral Parade, leaving from the Memorial Coliseum. A marching band will lead you past nearly 500,000 spectators who will cheer you on as you enjoy your own ‘fitness parade.’ You can opt to do a two-mile portion of the course and exit to return to the formation area in northwest Portland.

Parade Viewing
Once you have completed the course, you will have a chance to view the Grand Floral Parade at a special walk viewing section near SW 12th and Taylor streets. Space will be available for walkers identified with a participant bib number.
