Dodge Park Rest Home would like to invite you to join us to the
2009 Central Massachusetts Memory Walk
Sunday, September 13th @ 10am
Worcester Senior Center (128 Providence St.)
What is Memory Walk?
Memory Walk is the largest annual fundraiser for the Alzheimer’s Association. Participants collect pledges and walk 1, 2, or 3 miles on the day of the event to raise monies and awareness for the Alzheimer’s Association. Proceeds from the Walk will help fund programs throughout Worcester County such as support groups, research, caregiver trainings, and a 24-hour statewide Helpline.
Are there other activities taking place at the Walk?
Absolutely! After the Walk participants can enjoy a free lunch while listening to live musical entertainment. In addition, there will be a raffle with fabulous prizes, face-painting, a magician, kids crafts, blood pressure screenings, massages and more! There will also be a “Wall of Memories” on display where participants can post photos and/or messages in honor of, or in memory of, their loved ones. We also give out Team Spirit Awards to recognize teams with the “Most Team Spirit” and “Best T-Shirt Design!”
Who participates in the event?
People of all different ages and backgrounds participate in Memory Walk. Our individual and team walkers come from healthcare facilities, colleges, high schools, churches, hospitals, families of people with Alzheimer’s disease, civic groups, etc. This year we are expecting over 1,000 participants.
Please join Dodge Park Rest Home, The Adult Day Club and Dusk to Dawn at Dodge Park for this unique event.
