Heart Walk to be held in Cy-Fair
The American Heart Association will hold its annual “Heart Walk” for the Northwest Harris County area on Oct. 22.
The family-friendly event promotes physical activity as part of a heart-healthy lifestyle, and raises funds for research and programs to fight heart disease and stroke.
The noncompetitive 5K walk will include approximately 2,000 local residents and 30 businesses and organizations from the Northwest Harris County area dedicated to promoting healthy hearts.
Registration for the event will begin at 8:30 a.m., and walkers will begin their walk at 9:30 a.m. from Lone Star College-CyFair, 9191 Barker Cypress Road, and go through the neighborhood of Towne Lake.
The overall fundraising goal for the walk is $225,000.
