The American Heart Association (AHA) Start! Heart Walk is scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 26, and the AHA has made it easy for Vanderbilt University Medical Center employees to participate.

If you would like to join a team, visit the Nashville Heart Walk Web site at http://nashvilleheartwalk.org and click “find a team.” If you are already on a team, you can give your donation to your team captain, donate online or attend the Heart Walk Bank Day. Representatives from the AHA will collect cash and checks on Wednesday, Sept. 23, from 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. in the conference room on the fifth floor of Medical Center East.

The Heart Walk festivities begin at 8 a.m., at the Sports Club Field on the corner of 25th Avenue and Children’s Way. The walk begins at 10 a.m. and will cover three miles. Festivities, including music and food, continue until noon. All participants will receive a T-shirt from their team captains.
