Date & Time: September 12, 2026 at 10:00 AM-1 PM (Pacific Time)
Location: Seward Park, Picnic Shelter #1, 5900 Lake Washington Blvd S, Seattle, 98118
Join Evergreen Treatment Services for a casual, family-friendly day of movement and connection at Move for Recovery! Walk, run, hike, roll, or simply show up in solidarity along a 2-3 mile route through Seattle’s beautiful Seward Park.
For over 50 years, ETS staff have walked alongside participants who set their own paths and pace. Today, challenges like deadly synthetic opioids and funding pressures make this journey harder than ever. This event celebrates progress in all its forms and supports recovery through community and powerful sharing.
Whether you participate in person or pledge from afar, every movement shows that recovery is possible. Join us in honoring National Recovery Month and those on the path to healing!
Recovery is a lifelong journey that looks different for everyone.
ETS staff know well that the journey matters more than the destination. For more than 50 years, staff have walked alongside our participants who set the pace for their own recovery. Today, the terrain is harder than ever: deadly synthetic opioids, a resurgence of “War on Drugs” rhetoric, and funding pressures across the nonprofit sector threaten to slow the progress we’ve worked hard to make.
That’s why we created Move for Recovery — a community event that celebrates progress that is multifaceted, includes powerful sharing, and supports recovery in all its forms. Whether you walk, run, hike, bike, roll, or cheer from the sidelines, every movement represents the reality that recovery is possible.
Join us at Seward Park!
Seward Park is a 300-acre park on a Peninsula in Seattle’s Lake Washington. This park has mountain views, and an Audubon Center. Seward Park features the only old growth forest within city limits with trees over 250 years old.
Meet us at Picnic Shelter #1 beginning at 10 a.m. Participants can choose the activity that best fits their interests and ability, including:
- Relaxing, cheering on participants, or connecting with the ETS community
- A paved 2.4-mile loop around the park (approximately 32 ft of elevation gain)
- Forest trails with more moderate inclines beneath towering old-growth trees
- Family-friendly spaces including a playground, beaches, and picnic areas
