WATERVILLE — The Alzheimer’s Association seeks participants for its Kennebec Valley Walk to End Alzheimer’s is set for Saturday, Oct. 5, at Head of Falls Park on Front Street.
The event is a fundraiser that also raises awareness for Alzheimer’s care, support and research. On walk day, participants honor those affected by Alzheimer’s with the Promise Garden ceremony — a mission-focused experience that signifies our solidarity in the fight against the disease.
The walk takes place at seven locations across Maine during September and October. This year the Kennebec Valley Walk aims to raise $37,000.
Participants can choose to start a team, join a team, or walk as an individual. The Kennebec Valley Walk to End Alzheimer’s will begin following the Promise Garden Ceremony at 10 a.m.
