“The end of Alzheimer’s starts with me.” That’s the slogan for the Phoenix Walk to End Alzheimer’s. Cosponsored by AARP Arizona, the Banner Alzheimer’s Institute and Dignity Health, the event is Saturday, Nov. 12.
About 12,000 people are expected to participate on behalf of more than 120,000 Arizonans with dementia. Many families walk in teams, often representing three or four generations in support or memory of a loved one.
Participants can choose between a one-mile route or a three-mile route. Both begin and end at Wesley Bolin Memorial Plaza at 205 S. 17th Ave. in Phoenix.
