Join us for the largest, local event to raise awareness and funds for Alzheimer’s and all other dementia! Walkers are welcome beginning at 8:30 AM, with a Zumba warm up at 9:20 AM, a brief ceremony at 9:45 AM, and the Walk beginning thereafter around 10:00 AM. The Walk is a 1.5 mile loop around the Holyoke Community College campus, and there is also a shorter .25 mile loop option around the HCC track. People of all ages, including children, and leashed pets welcome! Visit with our sponsors, Ask an Expert, take photos, write a tribute to a loved one, grab some refreshments and spend time with our local community as we fight to #ENDALZ!
Free to register as a team or individual walker, but we do ask that anyone attending register via the Walk website or on site on Sunday. All funds raised help fund research, and help the Alzheimer’s Association provide no-cost care and support to anyone facing dementia and their loved ones.
