TriHealth Bridge

January 02, 2014

We are recruiting team captains for the American Heart Association's annual Heart Mini Marathon, Sunday, March 16. This year we have set a goal to raise $85,000 and generate 1,200 participants - and we need your support!

The Role of a Team Captain
As a team captain, you:

  • Serve as the contact person and "cheerleader" for your team.
  • Recruit individuals to join the team or make a donation.
  • Register your team online (see instructions below),
  • Distribute participant bags (with t-shirt, race number, information) when they are delivered to your respective location, a week before the event.

Why You Should Participate

Incentives to participate - as a TriHealth captain or team member - include free fitness at the Bethesda North, Good Samaritan and Bethesda Oak fitness centers, and possible T-shirts, gift cards, posters and much more from the American Heart Association. You can also earn credit toward your 2014 Healthy Living Scorecard. Learn more at trihealthlifestyles.com/healthy-living-scorecard.
