A local band performing,
refreshments, raffle drawing, and sharing memories will take place
back at the Capitol. The 5K walk can be walked at a leisurely pace,
as we are concerned about suicide awareness and not so much speed.

corner of Hillsborough and Salisbury (closest to the starting
point) |
| Behind the First Baptist
Church –McDowell and Hillsborough |

Edenton and Blount – 1 block east |

block south of Capitol (parking deck) |
Join us as we enjoy the lush
green grounds of the State Capitol, walk past many Raleigh historic
sites and feel great about sharing the fact that suicide can come
out of the darkness! Register today!

| The
monthly meetings for TCSP
are generally scheduled on the third Tuesday of every month at 6:30
PM. (please check ahead of time, as the meetings, especially during
the summer months, may have changed to avoid scheduling conflicts).
We meet at the Triangle Presbyterian
church in Durham. Take route 40 and get off at the Southpoint exit
(# 276) but instead of going toward Southpoint, go in the other
direction on Fayetteville St. for a very short distance. You will
come to the corner of Fayetteville St. and 54W. Turn on 54W and go
0.8 miles. While on 54W, you will pass Homestead Market, Highgate
Center, and Spring Hill development on the left. The church is also
on the left and is on the corner of Tudor Place and 54W (the address
is 5001 Tudor Place). Turn left onto Tudor Place and you'll see the
main entrance of the church. Go past that driveway and past a small
parking lot and turn left into the 3rd driveway which is where the
big parking lot is. Come through the doors which will be unlocked
and it's room 100.
Everyone is welcome. For further information contact Phil
Morse (pmorse@nc.rr.com).
