WHY WALK?
There are 46 million men, women and children in the United States with doctor-diagnosed arthritis. That’s 46 million reasons to care. That’s 46 million reasons to walk. Take the first steps today by joining the North Shore Arthritis Walk to help us raise funds to support research in the prevention, control and cure of arthritis.
The 2011 North Shore Arthritis Walk will take place on Sunday, May 22 at Lynch Park in Beverly. More than 600 participants from more than 17 North Shore communities will form teams and walk together to fight arthritis by raising funds to help find a cure.
WHAT IS AN ARTHRITIS WALK TEAM?
A team is any group of people joining together to walk to cure arthritis. You may sign up as many people as possible! Team members may include colleagues, family, clients – anyone you can think of who wants to participate!
WHY FORM A TEAM AT MY COMPANY?
It’s fun and easy! Many of your colleagues have arthritis! Many others are living with or caring for someone with arthritis. Walking in the North Shore Arthritis Walk as a team is a great way for your group to make a difference in the lives of those living with arthritis, a way to begin a healthy walking habit and to gain valuable visibility for your company! Regular physical activity, like walking, helps to both prevent and treat arthritis.
HOW IS A COMPANY TEAM FORMED?
