The Awareness Garden was established at the Ed Page entrance to the James River Heritage Trail and dedicated on September 6, 2003. The Awareness Garden honors the families and caregivers whose lives have been touched by cancer. Experience the beautiful gateway to nature, remembering the blessing of good health. Ring "Lalla's Bell" 3 times to celebrate the end of treatments, to remember a loved one, or to bring hope for a cure for all.

You can honor a loved one or friend with an engraved brick, placed in paths and walkways of the garden. A small number of benches and lime stones are also available for purchase.

They have a fundraiser "The Annual golf Classic Cocktail Party. They have a annual "Lighting of the Garden" with hot chocolate and caroling to celebrate the holiday season. Lights are illuminated every evening from 5-11 p.m. through January. They also have a "Brick Dedication" where donors and their honored guests can view newly engraved bricks, limestones and benches. A brief prayer of dedication is offered followed by refreshments.

The Awareness Garden has been a beautiful work in progress. The photos(below) show the evolution of the garden from its conception.
