Noah’s Quest and Brief Encounters invite you to become a part of a memorial honoring our babies by purchasing a memorial brick. The Brick Walkway is located at Sandy Bluff Park in Sandy, Oregon. The Brick Walkway was unveiled at Noah’s Quest 2014 and continues to grow.

Cost: $30 for text only, $38 for text and a symbol (the order site says "logo")

Symbol options include footprints, butterfly, dragonfly, heart, dove, shooting star, rose, teddy bear, and more.

All bricks will be shipped to the City of Sandy and installed at Sandy Bluff Park.
