Registration for the event will begin at 6:45 that morning. A registration form also is available online at www.furnituretoday.com/contents/pdfs/ft_centerCol_img1.jpg 

Participants will be asked to make a tax-deductible donation of $100 to the City of Hope, a cancer research and treatment center headquartered in Duarte, Calif. Those taking part will receive commemorative Hike for Hope shirts.

Leading the walk will be Todd Wanek, president and CEO of Ashley, and Joe Carroll, publisher of Furniture/Today.
