2012 Walk to End Alzheimer's

Please join us for our local 2012 Walk to End Alzheimer's presented by the Rockland Chapter of the Alzheimer's Association.  The walk will take place at St. Thomas Aquinas College on Sunday, October 7, 2012.  Registration starts at the Romano Student Center at 9:00 a.m. and the welcome ceremony and walk begin at 10:00 a.m..  The event is a wonderful way to raise awareness surrounding this horrible disease which affects many families in our community.  Registration is available for corporate teams, family and friend teams, or individuals.  All funds raised go to the National Alzheimer's Association to be used towards research as well as funding for local chapters, including the Rockland County Chapter.  There will be raffle prizes and brunch/lunch served upon the return from the walk, which is a short, flat walk around part of the STAC campus.  To register, go to www.alz.org/walk and select the Sparkill walk.  For more information, contact Maria @ 845-639-6777 or maria.paliotta@alz.org

Donations can be made to the local walk by donating online at the Sparkill walk or by mailing checks (made payable to the Alzheimer's Assocation) to Maria Paliotta at 301 North Main Street, Suite 7, New City, New York 10956.  Additionally, if any local businesses are interested in donating raffle prizes or food and/or beverages, please contact Maria at the phone number listed above.
