BANGOR – The American Heart Association will hold its annual American Heart Walk at 9:30 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 5, at the Bangor Auditorium. Registration begins at 8:30 a.m. Saint Joseph Hospital and Northeast Cardiology Associates sponsor this year’s event.

Individuals, area businesses, organizations, schools and religious groups are invited to enter. This year, there is also a friends and family category for those who want to enter a family team and walk on behalf of a loved one who has suffered heart disease or stroke.

A “Red Cap” Survivors breakfast will begin at 8 a.m. Registered walkers who are survivors of heart attack, cardiac arrest, heart surgery or stroke will receive two free tickets. The public may purchase tickets in advance. The cost is $12 for adults and $5 for children under age 12. Advance registration is required by Thursday, Oct. 3.

For information, call the American Heart Association at (800) 937-0944 or 848-2888. Collection envelopes also are available at Subway, a national sponsor of the walk.
