Thousands of Central Virginians will gather on Brown's Island for the 2007 canalWALK for Long, Healthy Life, on Saturday, May 19th from 2:00-8:00pm. The event celebrates and supports health, security and independence for adults over 60 and their families – with all proceeds to support Senior Connections.

Come for the grandbabies' parade and 3K fundraising walk, stay for supper, and join 12-time Grammy Award winner Emmylou Harris, with opening act The Taters for a sunset concert performance that is not to be missed. For more than 30 years, 12-time Grammy Award-winning artist Emmylou Harris has flowed effortlessly between musical genres, achieving popularity in pop, folk, country and alternative styles of music. The common bridge is an exquisite vocal style and a gift for discovering the heart of a song.
