The 2nd Annual Des Moines Zombie Walk

It’s creeping up on us fast and we can’t wait! The 2nd Annual Des Moines Zombie Walk is going to be amazing! Please don’t forget that this is a CHARITY event for the Central Iowa Shelter and Services. Please bring an item from their needs list to the event, if you can afford to do so. It is not a requirement to participate but would be much appreciated if you did! If you want to read more about who started this event, go check out Dallas J. Moore’s Official Website DesMoinesZombieWalk.com!! Finder’s Creepers will be donating 10% of all their sales that day to the Central Iowa Shelter and Services as well!


THE PLANS:

11:00 AM - 2:00 PM: We will open our doors to the public so that everyone can partake in a Zombie Walk Warm-Up including: Zombie Caricatures by Job Yamen, Zombie Body Painting/Air-Brushing by Shawn Palek and Gore Effects by Lenore Oresco! Horror movies will be playing on the big screen for your enjoyment.

Each of these individuals will be charging a small fee for their creep-tastic services but each artist will be donating a huge chunk of their earnings to the Central Iowa Shelter and Services.


2:00 PM - 5:00 PM: All of the zombies will gather and you will do the Zombie Walk through downtown Des Moines. Each zombie will be marked for identification and given a raffle ticket for a chance to win prizes at the end of the event. For a detailed map of the walk, click here. Have fun, be safe and behave! Some of you will be back a little sooner than others, so feel free to hang out and watch horror movies until the raffle!


5:15-5:30 PM: We will be holding the raffle promptly at 5:15 that evening. So far we’ve gotten awesome prizes donated from Sleepy Hollow Sports Park, Mid-Iowa Rollers, Des Moines Derby Dames and many of the artists who are featured in the art gallery are donating some items for the raffle as well. At this time, we will be accepting cash donations for the Shelter as well!
