memory walk: Memory Walk for Alzheimer's Chattanooga at AT&T Field - 09/20/08 11:24 PM
Today my wife and I participated in the Memory Walk for Alzheimer's Research. The crowd was fairly large. My estimate is around 1000. There were several groups participating. Some were from health care providers, some from churches, some in support of a family member.
Judy's Team won the coveted Spirit Award. This award went to St Barnabas Nursing Home.
This year the Memory Walk set up personal websites to help participants collect contributions. The highest total collected on the internet was by a dedicated Memory Walk volunteer whose husband is suffering from the disease. She collected over $1100 on her website.
