2009 Bellevue Arthritis Walk - Bellevue City Hall Plaza
Join Us on Saturday, October 10, 2009!
Bellevue Arthritis Walk:
We’re Head Over Heels for the 80s!
Grab your Rubik’s Cube, Hammer pants, stonewashed jean jacket and leg warmers for the 2009 Bellevue Arthritis Walk! Join us as we step back into the 1980s culture to celebrate the many advances in arthritis research and care over the past 30 years. Then we will take you back to the future as we look forward to new ways to prevent, control and cure the 100+ forms of arthritis and related rheumatic diseases.
The Arthritis Walk® is the Arthritis Foundation’s annual nationwide event that raises awareness and funds to fight arthritis, the nation’s most common cause of disability. It is a tremendous opportunity to help improve the lives of the 46 million men, women and children doctor-diagnosed with arthritis.
Get your company involved or recruit friends and family members to form a team. Best of all, walk in honor of a loved one with arthritis and know you’re making a difference by raising funds to support Arthritis Foundation research, public health and public policy efforts to improve the lives of people with arthritis.
