Crescent Lake Park in St. Petersburg |
The United States has designated October 15 as National
Remembrance Day for families who have experienced the death
of a baby during pregnancy or infancy. In recognition of
this day, the community is invited to gather together at
Crescent Lake Park in St. Petersburg to participate in an
environmentally friendly balloon release in celebration of
the short but precious lives of the little ones we so deeply
love and desperately miss. The release will take place
promptly at 6:00 PM on Saturday, October 15. Guests are
encouraged to arrive early to allow time to write notes to
their children on seed paper, which will be handed out along
with biodegradable balloons from 5:00-5:45 PM. Precautions
are being taken to ensure that this is an eco-friendly
event, so we must insist that nobody brings their own
balloons. This event is free but donations are greatly
appreciated. To register please contact:
lauren.e.highfill@gmail.com
This Remembrance Gathering is being held in affiliation with
Sweet Pea Project and
is hosted by Lauren Highfill Symmes, who is volunteering
her efforts in memory of her own beautiful child, Rex
Christopher. Sweet Pea Project, a 501(c)3 nonprofit
organization that offers comfort, support and gentle guidance to
families who have experienced the death of a baby during
pregnancy or infancy, was founded by Stephanie Paige Cole after
the death of her daughter Madeline. Sweet Pea Project

book donation programs. The official
Sweet Pea Project Annual
Remembrance Gathering will be happening on the same
