Time to hustle To show support for this year’s MUSC Heart Walk, hustle out to the Horseshoe Friday, Sept. 9 sometime between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. and participate in the festivities, food and fundraising.   Doing the hustle is easy, whether it’s dunking doctors, deans, and administrators at the dunking booth or enjoying a massage. On the portico, Sticky Fingers, Mama Fu’s Asian House, EVO Fire-Wood Oven Pizza, and Jason’s Deli will have selections from their menus. Take your pick of dessert at the bake sale or go for ice cream served up by hospital administration.   The Office of Volunteer and Community Services’ annual Arts and Crafts exhibit will also add a variety of  homemade jewelry exhibits, paintings, embroidery items, homemade jams and jellies, wooden crafts, sweet grass baskets and much more to the Heart Walk Hustle fundraising event. All proceeds from the Hustle will go to the American Heart Association. Last year’s Hustle raised $9,000 and this year, the goal is to exceed that mark.   MUSC is this year’s lead sponsor for the American Heart Association’s Lowcountry Heart Walk held on Saturday, Sept. 24. All proceeds of the Heart Walk Hustle will go to the AHA on behalf of MUSC to help meet the total fundraising challenge of $100,000. Help MUSC meet that goal by coming out to the Hustle and/or signing up for a MUSC Heart Walk Team for the event on Sept. 24.      Friday, Sept. 2, 2005 Catalyst Online is published weekly, updated as needed and improved from time to time by the MUSC Office of Public Relations for the faculty, employees and students of the Medical University of South Carolina.
