The IG Wealth Management Walk for Alzheimer’s is coming up this weekend, with walks planned across Northwestern Ontario, including Kenora, Dryden, Fort Frances and Atikokan.
The Kenora walk takes place under the Jarnel Contracting Pavilion on Saturday, May 30. Registration opens at 8:30 a.m., followed by a warmup with Susan Evenden, and the walk kicks off at 9 a.m.
“The IG Wealth Management walk for Alzheimer’s is one of the biggest national events for fundraisers, supporting people living with dementia and their caregivers right here in our community,” says Hyacinth Caranguian, office and event coordinator for the Alzheimer Society of Kenora/Rainy River Districts.
Weather you’ve been personally affected or simply want to show your support, Caranguian says this is a great way to get involved.
A water station and fruit will be provided through the Alzheimer Society’s partners.
You can register for this event through their website or on-site before the start of the walk. For more details, you can visit www.alzheimer.ca/krr or call the Kenora office at 807-468-1516.
