We’re thrilled to announce that we’re holding our first “Go Vertical for MS” Stair Climb at the Westin Town Center in Virginia Beach on March 5, 2011! The Hampton Roads Chapter is one of four chapters to coordinate a Stair Climb fundraising event.
Standing over 500 feet high, the Westin Virginia Beach Town Center Residence at 4535 Commerce Street will be the location for the first Stair Climb fundraising event of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society - Hampton Roads Chapter. Climbers may use any combination of walking, running and resting to climb 36 flights of stairs up the tallest structure between Philadelphia and Charlotte! Teams and individual participants can use the Stair Climb as a personal challenge or as a competition against other climbers or the clock. Climbers will be timed and we’ll coordinate staggered starts based on skill level and teams.
“Go Vertical for MS” is a thrilling and unique fundraising event for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society that embodies the Society’s campaign to Join the Movement. It’s an opportunity for enthusiastic and motivated stair climbers within the city of Virginia Beach and the surrounding Hampton Roads community to come together and bring us closer to a world free of MS.
