Overcoming addiction

About 200 people Friday participated in the ninth annual Mason County Overdose Awareness Walk & Resource Fair that began with a resource fair and speakers at Kneeland Park. The attendees, many carrying photos of loved ones lost to overdose, then marched through downtown Shelton. The Belfair Overdose Awareness Walk & Resource Fair was staged the next day. The events honored the memory of lives lost to overdose and provide hope to people who are struggling.
