Claremont Red Cross Charity Event Tomorrow

The Claremont Red Cross is holding it's annual Walk on the Wild Side tomorrow, Saturday, March 29th, at the Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Gardens and Cahuilla Park. The event runs from 8am to 2pm and is co-hosted by the local Red Cross Chapter and the Claremont Police Department.

There will be a 5K walk in the Botanic Gardens. Registration for the walk is $2o for youths - kids 3-17 years old, $25 for adults, and $80 for families if you register by today. Registration tomorrow is an extra $5. Check-in for the walk will begin at 8am at the Claremont Youth Activities Center (YAC) at 1717 N. Indian Hill Blvd. in Cahuilla Park.
