PAIL Network’s Butterfly Release and Family Picnic in London
September 9, 2018 @ 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM
Dear PAIL Network family and friends,
We would like to share an invitation for you and your family to attend PAIL Network’s Butterfly Release and Family Picnic in London on Sunday, September 9, 2018 from 10:00 am – 1:00 pm.

London, ON, N5V 5B9
Location: Lakeview Pavilion
Bring the whole family together to celebrate and honour your baby’s life, no matter how short, in the company of other PAIL Network family and friends. Our Butterfly Release and Family Picnic is an event that also supports the invisible mourners of pregnancy and infant loss; the children, grandparents, and other friends and family members who are impacted by this tragic loss. This event is one of the many ways PAIL Network looks to provide comfort and support as families remember their baby who has died.
After submitting your online registration, you will be automatically redirected to complete online payment for picnic entry and any additional butterflies purchased. Registration to the picnic is pending payment. You will be emailed a payment receipt following the transaction for your own records.
