Walk for Epilepsy Research Saturday March 29

Although we know you LOVE City Fitness and Cleveland Park, it is a great time of year to get downtown. Walk with the Epilepsy Foundation this weekend to help raise money for research. The route goes from the mall around the Washington monument on 17th street and back to the mall. From there, you can see the cherry blossoms when they bloom. Some of the details are below, but click above or on the links within the text for more info. This year's Walk is slightly over 2 miles. Click here to see the Walk route. There are many exciting events happening in Washington D.C. on Saturday March 29th. Be sure to arrive early to take part in the Pre-Walk rally which begins at 8:15 a.m. We encourage participants to use Metro to reach the Walk site. Metro opens at 7 a.m. on the weekend. Please visit http://www.wmata.com/ for rail and bus schedule information. The main stage will be located at 3rd Street and Madison Drive, you can use either Archives Navy Memorial station (7th and Pennsylvania Avenue) or Smithsonian station (12th and Jefferson Drive) to reach the site. Be sure to look for our Walk volunteers in the orange shirts if you need help.
