Release a butterfly and hear the name of your loved one read aloud during a special commemorative ceremony. Your butterfly(ies) will be held for you at the check-in table until you arrive.
Our second annual Butterfly Release gives you a unique opportunity to:
- set aside a few special moments, in a beautiful surrounding, to pause, remember, honor and celebrate one or more people who were important in your life and whose memory lives on.
- remember and share the past in a joyful and celebratory way with your children...
- support programs that help children and families experiencing traumatic loss to heal and recover from their grief.
The cost of reserving a butterfly is $35. If you would like to commemorate a loved one but cannot attend, we can release your butterfly on your behalf. The name of your loved one(s) will be read aloud.
The butterflies are now sold out for this event.
