Time: 12:00 - 3:00 PM
Venue: Virginia Tech Drillfield

Description: The American Heart Associations (AHA) presents the 2014 HeartChase Community Adventure Game / Scavenger Hunt on Saturday, October 25th on the Virginia Tech Drillfield.

Note: Registration and the opening ceremony will take place on the steps of Burruss Hall.

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 American Heart Association (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 10 checkpoint challenges and locate hidden donations all while tracking progress in the HeartChase Mobile Game App. The team with the most points at the end of the clock wins!

Schedule:
• 12:00 pm - Check-In Opens at Burruss Hall Steps
• 1:00 - 3:00 pm - HeartChase Game

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. The first Game Advantage Card only goes to the first ten teams to reach $100. And the team with the highest donation total wins a special, one of a kind Game Advantage Card!

Participants are encouraged to wear team costumes, download the HeartChase App on your smartphone and register online.
