Registration is still open for the Walk for Alzheimer’s happening on June 19th.
This walk helps to raise funds for the Alzheimer’s Society. Over 80% of their funding comes from fundraisers like these.
Wanda Sime, the Parkland Regional Coordinator for the Alzheimer Society of Manitoba, says brochures can be picked up at the IG Wealth Management building or the Alzheimer Society of Manitoba building in Dauphin.
Last year the walk started at Vermillion Park, this year they’ve moved back somewhere they’ve started before, CN Park
The route is the same one as normal. The goal is to raise awareness and let people know they’re out there and can help or support those dealing with any kind of cognitive changes.
The walk registration will start at 5, the walk will start at 7, there’ll be a barbecue during the day, and face painting.
