The walk, on June 9, drew nearly 1,200 guests through seven southwest and west Omaha gardens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Garden Walk was a huge success,\u201d said Luann Rabe, president of the Munroe-Meyer Guild. \u201cThe weather was perfect, and the gardens were beautiful because of all the rain we received last month. People enjoyed that the gardens we selected were in close proximity, and some were asking where next year\u2019s walk will be. Our work for next year starts now.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event brought in more than $40,000 from ticket sales and donations, according to an early tally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gardens were open to the public for the event, which supports innovative programming and research at the Munroe-Meyer Institute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The guild has a history of using its fundraising to provide seed grant funding for successful MMI programs, including GoBabyGo! Nebraska, the Opportunity Brew Coffee Cart and the virtual-reality Hand-Arm Bimanual Intensive Therapy (HABIT) Camp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
