Tennessee Stepping Out 2018 NashvilleREGISTER TODAY!

Please join us Saturday, June 8, 2019 for the Tennessee Chapter's 17th annual Stepping Out to Cure Scleroderma 5K Run/Walk in Centennial Park between Park Plaza and West End Avenue. Help us take one step closer to finding a cure for scleroderma!

Look for us under the larger event shelter near the antique airplane and steam engine train across the street from the beautiful sunken garden. Activities for children will include face-painting and a magician and balloon artist.

A free lunch of hot dogs, chips, soda and ice cream will be provided after the walk. Free parking is located near the shelter as well as behind the shelter along Park Plaza.

To help create scleroderma awareness, please wear a T-shirt from a past Stepping Out event. To help you fundraise, you may purchase Scleroderma Foundation branded items, such as T-shirts and more, through www.cafepress.com/sclerodermafoundation.
