Downtown Kenosha to celebrate White Cane Awareness Day Saturday, Oct. 15

Society’s Assets, with support from the Kenosha Lions Foundation, is sponsoring its fourth annual National White Cane Celebration Day event on Saturday, Oct. 15 in downtown Kenosha.

The free event, open to all ages and disabilities, is dedicated to helping raise awareness for the visually impaired.

The event begins at 11 a.m. at Society’s Assets, 5455 Sheridan Road. Participants can register for door prizes and choose a walking route, which begins at Society’s Assets and ends at the Wyndham Garden Hotel, 5125 Sixth Ave.

An information session with refreshments will take place from 12:30 to 2 p.m. at the Wyndham.
