Yesterday, Monday 8 July, at the Pool in the Club Zone, the Official Press Round of the Solidarity Walk 'Caminem per l'Or' took place, organized by the Tarragona Tennis Club and the Tarragona Red Cross.
The main objective of the event is to collect funds for the organization's projects and to make the 'Sorteig d'Or' visible, as well as the promotion of physical activity and healthy habits.
The main slogan is "We win the gold" in connection with the celebration of the Olympic Games in Paris, and it wants to highlight the importance of collective commitment in the achievement of solidarity goals, as well as the connection between the sports world and the work of the Red Cross.
According to Ramon Valeriano, vice-president of the Red Cross in the province of Tarragona, "these alliances are fundamental for us to get help to those who need it most".
Luís Salas, our president assures that "we are very happy to participate with this solidarity walk, and we believe that we have the ideal conditions, since we have a Club around a wonderful beach and mountain environment". Also, Salas confirms that "we are an obviously supportive club and when the Red Cross invited us to collaborate we didn't think twice".

The route will start at 9 am from the facilities of the Club Tennis Tarragona and will consist of 6.3 km through the wooded area of Cala Romana and the Monnars.
