SCRANTON, Pa. — In Lackawanna County, families are getting ready to honor their lost little ones during a walk reminding them they’re not alone.
The third annual Scranton Empty Stroller Run and Walk will step off next weekend at Nay Aug Park.
As part of the Adalyn Rose Foundation, many participants will roll an empty stroller to symbolize the absence of a child.

The run and walk in our area was started by Bridget and Brandon Lamberton after the loss of their daughter, Amelia.
“It means a lot, honestly. The support and how far this has come is unreal. We went from 175 people to this year we’re almost 300, we’re right at 300 right now. We’re hoping to get to 350, but we’ll see, and it’s just incredible to see the, the community support that we’ve gotten,” said Brandon Lamberton.
The empty stroller walk will start at 1:30 pm next Saturday at Nay Aug Park. Organizers say there will be a food truck, pop up tattoo shop and stroller decoration station.
