The annaul event, at Barleylands Farm, in Barleylands Road, raises thousands of pounds for charities.
The first two walks raised more than £36,000, and Mr Baron is hopeful that the 2004 event has been equally successful.
The MP said: "It was great to see the local community and good causes come together. It was a very festive atmosphere."
A number of groups, including Billericay Rotary Club, Basildon Council, the First Wickford Scout Group and St John Ambulance, helped organise the event.
Cheques will be presented to charities at the Rising Sun pub, Sun Street, Billericay on June 25.
