Description:
The American Heart Association and the New River Valley HeartChase Committee presents HeartChase at the Virginia Tech Corporate Research Center on Saturday, October 10, 2015.

Get your game on! HeartChase is a good-cause community adventure game. It’s a fun and frenzied pursuit of hidden rewards and healthy lives. And best of all, it’s a chance to help our community and the AHA chase away heart disease for good. Teams of 2-5 people will compete against other teams in a chase through the community. Each team will face multiple checkpoint challenges and locate Power Ups all while tracking progress in the HeartChase Mobile Game App. The team with the most points at the end of the clock wins!

Schedule:
• 8:00 am - Check-In begins
• 9:00 am - HeartChase Game Play begins

While the event is free to play, chasing away heart disease is no small task and the AHA needs everyone’s help to make it possible. To put the fun in fundraising and jump start the competition, we’ve created a series of Game Advantage Cards that are used to get a head start on chase day.

Registration is free though teams and participants are encouraged to raise funds for the American Heart Association.

• Game Advantages will make winning easier by allowing your team to do things like skip to the front of a checkpoint line or completely skip a checkpoint and still get the points!
