Alzheimer's Association Walk to End Alzheimer's is Personal for Chelsea Area Residents
Participants Raise Critically Needed Funds for Alzheimer's Care, Support and Research
Chelsea, MI -- The Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s is personal. We all have a reason to walk - whether we’re walking for friends, family, a caregiver or person living with Alzheimer’s disease or to stop rising health care costs and fight the nation’s sixth-leading cause of death. Step up and walk with us toward a world without Alzheimer’s disease. Register for the Chelsea Area Walk to End Alzheimer’s on September 27 at the Clock tower in Chelsea. Registration opens at 9 AM and the Walk starts at 10 PM, with both a 1 and a 2.8 mile route option.
But, Walk to End Alzheimer’s is more than a walk. It is an experience for participants to learn more about Alzheimer’s, how to get involved with this critical cause, advocacy opportunities, the latest in Alzheimer’s research and clinical trial enrollment to support programs and services.
Special thanks to our Platinum Sponsor United Methodist Retirement Communities. We truly appreciate their support in the fight against Alzheimer’s.
