The annual nationwide event began in 1984 to raise awareness of Americas most common cause of disability, while also raising desperately needed funds for research, health education and government advocacy to improve the lives of people with arthritis.
To celebrate the holiday season, participants tie jingle bells to their shoelaces, wear festive holiday costumes and ask family and friends to join them in support of the Arthritis Foundations mission to prevent, control and cure arthritis and related diseases.
Throughout its twenty-eight year history, the Jingle Bell Run/Walk for Arthritis has become the nations largest holiday run/walk event. The River Valley event is a 5k run, 5k walk and fun walk, along with a youth 5k and kids dash.....activities for the entire family.
