About the Memory Walk
Memory Walk is the only
nationwide event for Alzheimer’s disease. The walk raises money to support
local programs and services for persons with Alzheimer’s disease, their
caregivers and family members.
Local chapters of the Alzheimer’s
Association sponsor Memory Walks in their communities. The National weekend
for the Walk is October 3-4 1998.
Check with the local
Alzheimer's chapter for more specific dates, locations and registration
information. Information on the local chapers can be found at:
