Before Hampton Roads dove into Halloween weekend, families traded candy buckets for walking shoes with local business&nbsp;Groundworks&rsquo; St. Jude Walk on Oct. 24 at the Virginia Beach Sportsplex. This family-friendly event brought the Hampton Roads community together in support of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital's mission to find cures and save children. The day included a walk/run as well as activities for families and children. With Halloween just around the corner, participants were encouraged to wear costumes. <a href="https://www.groundworks.com/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Groundworks</a>&nbsp;has partnered with St. Jude for several years through fundraising and volunteer efforts, including a $100,000 company contribution supporting the hospital's mission to advance cures and treatment for childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases.&nbsp;
