The walk, a

WSB-TV Family2Family-sponsored event, is one of 25 walks taking place

nationwide. Proceeds benefit the programs and services of the Crohn's

and Colitis Foundation ­ Georgia Chapter. In addition, the Pace Setter

Walk seeks to raise awareness about Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis,

serious and chronic diseases of the digestive tract, and to raise funds

to find a cure.

The 2.5-mile

walk-a-thon will be at Atlanta's Chastain Park, beginning and ending at

the Galloway School. Registration starts at 8 a.m. and the walk begins

promptly at 9.

Entertainment,

food and prizes will be presented at the post-walk party. Plus, thanks

to AirTran Airways, the grand prize of two round-trip airline tickets

to any AirTran Airways destination will be presented to one lucky walker.

For every $100 a walker raises, his/her name will be placed in the drawing.

date) include Solvay Pharmaceuticals, Warner Brothers, Randstad North

America, CAMA, Airtran Airways, Meridian Springs Water, Eagle 106.7 FM
