Chevron And Textron Systems To Host American Heart Association’s Northshore Heart Walk
MANDEVILLE, LA – The American Heart Association, in partnership with Chevron and Textron Systems, will host its annual Northshore Heart Walk on Saturday, March 18, at Fontainebleau State Park, 62883 Highway 1089, in Mandeville, Louisiana.
Registration begins at 9:00 a.m., opening ceremonies start at 9:30 a.m. and the Walk begins at 10:00 a.m.
Heart disease is this country’s No. 1 killer, event organizers said. Brisk walking for as little as 30 minutes a day has proven health benefits, such as providing increased energy and circulation, as well as reduced risk of heart disease. The Heart Walk is designed to help participants understand this critical message, join with others and generate a renewed commitment to heart-healthy living through walking.
The non-competitive, three-mile walk also raises funds to support heart disease and stroke research and educational programs in the Greater New Orleans area.
The Northshore Heart Walk is free and open to the public.
