Coldest Night of the Year 2026: February 28

by Leave a Comment

Join us Saturday, February 28, 2026 for the Annual Coldest Night of the Year Walk in downtown Fredericksburg.  Sign up to walk one of two routes (3k or5k), joining a parade of hundreds of other friends from the area, all sharing one goal: to raise awareness and funds to support the many services Micah Ministries provides our unhoused local neighbors.  All who register to walk with our team and raise a minimum $75 before the event begins will earn a classy knit hat known as a toque. Those who can’t join us to walk can also support Team St. George’s with your 2026 tax-deductible donations.  For more information, contact Team Co-Captains Pam Jewett-Bullock 540.729.0840 or Charles Bullock 540.729.1054.  To register/donate, find our team page here.
