Riverside Arf with a Heart

Grab your leash and your favorite furry friend and join us for Arf for Heart, a fun-filled dog walk benefiting heart care at Riverside Healthcare.

Whether you’re walking in memory of a loved one, in support of someone currently receiving care, or just to show your love for the cause, your steps help strengthen hearts in our community.

Heart-Healthy Dog Walk: Lace up your sneakers and leash up your dogs as we embark on a heart-pumping walk around the Riverside Bourbonnais Campus. Walking is a fantastic way to promote cardiovascular health for both humans and dogs. Don't have a dog? No worries! You can still join the walk and enjoy the company of other dog enthusiasts.

  • Educational Booths: Learn more about heart health, nutrition, and exercise at our informative booths. Experts will be available to provide valuable insights on maintaining a healthy heart through proper diet and lifestyle choices.

  • Photo Booth: Capture the precious moments with your dog at our themed photo booth. Take home memories that warm your heart.

  • Food Trucks: Refreshments will be available for purchase.

Pre-registration is preferred but not required.
