Alzheimer's Association Memory Walk 2008

Mark your calendar for 4 October, and come Help Us End Alzheimer's.

The Alzheimer's Association is hosting an awareness and fundraising event at the Booth Amphitheatre at Regency Park in Cary and I'll be there walking 1.5 miles around Symphony lake with team "Forget-Me-Nots." Come join us!

If you can't make it out to participate in the walk and other excitement, please check out our donation page. You'll be helping with a great cause (and your name will show up in the scrolling "Honor Roll" marquee!). All funds raised go directly towards supporting the efforts of the Alzheimer's Association - the leading voluntary health organization in Alzheimer care, support and research.
Here is some additional info from their website:
The Alzheimer's Association Memory Walk® is the nation's largest event to raise awareness and funds for Alzheimer care, support and research – and it calls on volunteers of all ages to become champions in the fight against this fatal disease. Since 1989, Memory Walk has raised more than $230 million for our cause.

By joining Memory Walk, you’ll be walking with a purpose – and MOVING us ever closer to a world without Alzheimer's.

The Alzheimer's Association, the leading voluntary health organization in Alzheimer care, support and research, is dedicated to finding prevention methods, treatments and an eventual cure for Alzheimer’s.

Our vision is a world without Alzheimer’s.
Tell your friends, and we'll see you there.
