Jingle Bell Run/Walk
Date: December 6, 2014
Time: 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM
Event Description
The annual nationwide event began in 1984 to raise awareness of America?s most common cause of disability, while also raising desperately needed funds for research, health education and government advocacy to improve the lives of people with arthritis. To celebrate the holiday season, participants tie jingle bells to their shoelaces, wear festive holiday costumes and ask family and friends to join them in support of the Arthritis Foundation?s mission to prevent, control and cure arthritis and related diseases. Throughout its twenty-nine year history, the Jingle Bell Run/Walk for Arthritis has become the nation?s largest holiday run/walk event. The Western Suburbs event is a 5k run/walk, along with a youth 5k and kid?s dash.....activities for the entire family.
