March of Dimes hosts event
The March of Dimes Heinz Field of Hope will be held on Saturday, Aug. 17 at 9 a.m. at the south Plaza at Gate A at Heinz Field. This is a visual representation of he hope of the March of Dimes that one day all babies will be born healthy. All participants who turn in the $25 minimum or more will receive a Field of Hope pennant in the color of their choice: pink for girls, blue for boys, yellow for expectant parents and white for babies who are no longer with us.
Registration begins at 8 a.m. and the stroll starts at 9 a.m. Walkers will begin at Gate A of Heinz Field and continue around the North Shore. As they come to the finish, participants will be invited to place their pennants in the designated areas outside Gate A, turning Heinz Field into a Field of Hope. Afterwards, there will be food and festivities.
