Past: March for Babies

Registration begins at 8 a.m., and the walk begins at 9 a.m. There will be music, door prizes, a photo area, kids' area and breakfast items and hot dogs. For more information, visit marchforbabies.org or call (573) 651-6011. Each year, a mission-affected family serves as ambassadors for the walk. The McCoy family is representing Cape Girardeau. Memphys Grace McCoy was born weighing only 1 lb. 5 oz. and was only 11 inches long. Her lungs hemorrhaged at delivery causing her to require a ventilator and receive surfactant treatment. After 85 days in the neonatal intensive care unit, Steven and Dannie McCoy were able to bring their baby home.
