PALM SPRINGS - Take a walk every Saturday with some of your favorite KMIR6 news anchors and reporters and the Valley's movers and shakers.

 

Everyone is slipping on their walking shoes to get ready for a big charity walk on October 27th.

 

KMIR6, the Desert Sun, Klein Clark Sports and the United Way invite you to join hundreds of walkers, including local celebrities and community leaders, for weekly walks -- every Saturday between now and October 27th when everyone will gather for the 27th Annual Tram Road Challenge in Palm Springs. 

 

Proceeds from the event benefit the United Way of the Desert. The Saturday walks will take place in different communities and locations each weekend. We'll let you know every Friday where they're happening. Just watch KMIR6 News on Fridays or check out the Desert Sun for details.

 

There's also a complete schedule of participating celebrities and locations of walks on the official Facebook page, log on to www.facebook.com/PSMakeADifferenceDay and "like" the page.

 

The weekly walks culminate with the 6K Tram Road Challenge, planned for 7 a.m. Oct. 27. Registration is $30 for runners/walkers 15 to 59 years old and $25 for participants 14 and under and 60 and older. Age divisions are in five-year increments, and all taking part will receive medals at the end the race.
