Gainesville, VA, September 24, 2009 --(PR.com)-- The Virginia Division of Lennar and residents of their active adult community, Heritage Hunt in Gainesville are gearing up for their eighth annual 5K Walk/Run fundraiser to help in the fight against cancer.
The event is open to the public and will take place at the clubhouse of Lennar’s Heritage Hunt Gainesville community on Saturday, September 26 at 8:30 a.m. The walk/run continues for 3.1 miles throughout the Heritage Hunt community.

The first 150 registrants receive a commemorative T-shirt and prizes will be awarded to the top three men and women walkers and runners.
