Hickory’s own Jeff Hartman returns to entertain the walkers for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation’s 2009 Charlotte Walk to Cure Diabetes held on Saturday, April 18 at Paramount’s Carowinds. The four-mile walk will begin at 8:30 am with registration starting at 7 am.
“We have performed several Walk locations, including Lenoir-Rhyne College and Carowinds in an effort to help raise money and entertain ‘the troops,'” says Hartman.
Jeff Hartman has been touring and promoting original music professionally for 15 years. Hartman most recently had the privilege of performing for Supreme Court Justice Alito at The Lafayette Room of the Hay-Adams across the street from The White House. The President took residence at the Hay-Adams prior to his inauguration.
“The Walk to Cure Diabetes is a cause near and dear to my heart and I like being involved as much as possible. We’ve enjoyed a beautiful relationship with the JDRF since 2003 and this year is no exception. Please register to walk!”
The 2009 Catawba Valley Walk to Cure Diabetes will be held on Saturday, April 25 at Lenoir-Rhyne College. The three-mile walk starts at 11 am. Registration will begin at 9:30 am.
The Walk to Cure Diabetes is a walkathon held in more than 200 locations throughout the year.
JDRF’s Walks are family-friendly, held at great locations, including Lenoir-Rhyne College, and feature plenty of entertainment, food, and fun. All are invited to become one of the 500,000 plus people at the 200 Walk sites nationwide this year who are making a difference in the lives of people with type one diabetes. Folks are guaranteed to have a great time, get some exercise, and most importantly be a part of the cure, one step at a time.
