Finger Lakes Walk to End Alzheimer’s Disease is October 3. Around the city
CANANDAIGUA —Finger Lakes Walk to End Alzheimer’s Disease will be set up on October 3 to stage awareness and funding for dementia care, support, and research.
The walk that attracted more than 600 people from the Finger Lakes area in 2019 looks different this year. Instead of hosting a large gathering, participants walk the trails, tracks, and paths in the Finger Lakes area as individuals or as small groups of friends and family.
On August 27th, a virtual rally was held for the participants. Hosted by Doug Emblidge, anchor and walk participant for WHAM13 News. Emblidge participates in a walk to honor the mother living with Alzheimer’s disease.
Shelby Ascroft of Canandaigua, a volunteer chairperson of the Finger Lakes Walk Planning Committee, shares the progress made to date and what participants should expect on October 3rd.
Victor Kimberly Smith, whose mother died of juvenile dementia, shares her loss story and determination to find a cure.
Bill Ryan of Canandaigua talks about losing his father, joining the Alzheimer’s Society and becoming one of the top fundraising teams on Finger Lakes Walk.
Emblidge will host the opening ceremony on October 3rd at 10am. The event will be delivered to participants’ smartphones, tablets and computers. It features more local speakers who join together to combat dementia.
On the same day, a group of Alzheimer’s Society staff and volunteers create an iconic Promise Garden to pay homage to everyone affected by dementia in a “view only” and “drive through” format. The Promise Garden will be held at Granger Homestead on the corner of Canandaigua’s main and Granger Streets. Participants celebrate people affected by dementia with blue, yellow, purple, and orange flowers and highlight various reasons why people participate in walk-to-end Alzheimer’s disease.
Walk participants who raise $100 will receive a T-shirt featuring a local sponsor in the mail. To ensure that the T-shirt arrives before October 3, participants must meet their $100 fundraising goal by September 4.
Participants who have raised more than $200 by October 3 will receive a collectible purple Forget-Me-Not pin for the duration of the supply. Purple flowers commemorate those who lost in the fight against Alzheimer’s disease or other dementias.
In New York alone, there are more than 400,000 people living with this disease and more than one million carers providing unpaid care to loved ones with dementia.
Finger Lakes Walk is supported by national sponsors Edward Jones and CVS Health (or Actna / Omnicare). To subscribe and receive the latest updates for Walking, visit the following URL: alz.org/walk..
