We’ve started early this year: Sunday 9/17 was the Walk to end Alzheimer’s at CBS Studios where Pilots and Troopers from Star Wars Stormed the lot! The day was cool with a light breeze, an unexpectedly perfect day for a walk outdoors. How great to know it is in support of a great cause, ending Alzheimer’s! To find a walk near you, go to alz.org to see a map of the U.S. Click on your area: the screen will pop up to show the different walks near you. Click on the one you want & fill in a short registration form. The end of this post lists several Southern CA Walks.

We love the donation awards. We handed out a free Purple Walk T-shirt to everyone who donated $100. Team Captains received an "alz.org" imprinted collapsible sunshade to keep their car's dashboard cool in the summer heat of the Valley. Champions who raised $1,000 were given a special Champion T-shirt along with bells, whistles, and high-fives from the volunteers. (Sherry pictured at right in her "Adapting to Alzheimer's" T-shirt.)

 The walk to the Stage area was lined with refreshment booths serving water, fresh Red Delicious apples, yogurt, fig bars, and more. Next were helpful people in information booths that offer services to Alzheimer's caregivers. Among others, these included resources for senior living such as Meridian, support help for home care such as 123 Home Health Care, and One Generation for a senior center with excellent day programs.
