About this Event

Join Rotary Club of Asheville South and Rotary Club of Asheville-Biltmore in uniting rotary and the community at Reuter Family YMCA for a 24-hour walkathon starting at noon on Friday, May 5.

Participants may sign up to walk for 15 minutes (or more) on the treadmills as a way to honor loved ones and raise money to assist in research and help sufferers live as fully as possible.

While there is no fee to register for the walkathon, all participants are encouraged to raise critical funds for CART and MemoryCare to provide care and support and advance research toward methods of prevention, treatment and, ultimately, a cure. The walkathon will end at noon on Saturday, May 6.
Are you a night owl? Sign up for a 2:00 a.m. shift!

Participants will also get to enjoy the following perks from Biltmore Park Town Square during the walkathon:

Drink vouchers from Thirsty Monk Friday night
Sample tastings from The Sweet Escape Friday afternoon
Free coffee from Mosaic Cafe Saturday morning
