Walk Distance: Join hundreds of Memory Walkers for a 3-mile walk in Slater Memorial Park, starting and ending at the Carousel.
Parking: You may park in the parking areas throughout the park.
Dogs: Dogs are permitted at the park. However, due to the large amount of people and the unknown disposition of dogs that may be in attendance, the Alzheimer's Association cannot be responsible for the safety of your pet. If you do bring your dog, it must be on a leash and you are responsible for cleaning up after your pet.
Memory Walk Contact: For more information about the 2009 Memory Walk contact Bella Garcia or call 401-421-0008.
The Alzheimer's Association Memory Walk® is the nation's largest event to raise awareness and funds for Alzheimer care, support and research – and it calls on volunteers of all ages to become champions in the fight against this fatal disease. Since 1989, Memory Walk has raised more than $260 million for the cause.
Memory Walk is a community event that joins friends, family and co-workers as they walk to end Alzheimer’s. Participants typically register in teams of 10-12 and fundraise using tools supported by the Alzheimer’s Association. Walks vary from one to three miles and are held in nearly 600 locations nationwide.
With your support and the support of the business community, we are hoping to raise over $290,000 at Memory Walk in 2009 to benefit the Rhode Island Chapter. More than 5.3 million people have Alzheimer's disease, but many more are affected by caregiving. The Rhode Island Chapter provides counseling, referral services, training classes, support groups and a Helpline for people with Azheimer's, their caregivers, and health professionals.
