The Alzheimer’s Support Center will hold its 12th Anniversary Walk to Remember on
Saturday, Sept. 18, 2010 at Beloit’s Riverside Park. Informational poster.
2010 brochure.

Look at the 2009 photo gallery. In 2008, 153 walkers and several 4 legged friends showed up on the wonderfully sunny day to support the cause.

The goal of the event is to help the ASC continue to provide services to the

thousands of  people in the area affected by Alzheimer’s disease and related
dementias. All funds raised by this event stay in the community to support
the ASC’s ongoing programs and services.

Carolyn Hamilton raised the most money in sponsorship with $6057.00. That

is the most money that a single person has raised since the Walk to Remember
event began. Top team went to Team Haskins Heroes who raised $4,524.00.
Haskins Heroes also won an award for having the most number of team members.
Their team had 24 walkers! The total money raised after expenses is 29,000!
 
The Pets on Parade added a festive atmosphere as well with dogs winning
prices in four categories of contests. The Humane Society was also present
with adoptable dogs and information, as well as cholesterol and blood pressure
screenings by Mercy Health.

We would like to thank the many volunteers, walkers and sponsors that

helped to make this event a success! Without them, our events can not
happen.
 
The Walk is sponsored by Lamar Outdoor Advertising, Home Instead,
Police Association, Harbor Senior Concepts, and Our House.
