Hundreds of Mattoon-Charleston residents will unite in a movement to reclaim the future for millions at the Alzheimer's Association's Walk to End Alzheimer'sr. We would like to thank Brookstone Estates and Gowin Parc Memory Care Community for sponsoring this walk, and helping us #ENDALZ for the 210,000 people affected here in Illinois.

Walk to End Alzheimer's will be held on Saturday, September 26 at Roadhouse Complex, 401 N 10th St in Mattoon. Registration will begin at 9:30am and open ceremony will start at 10am with the walk beginning immediately after. Participants will learn about Alzheimer's disease, advocacy opportunities, clinical studies enrollment and support programs and services. Walk participants also honor those affected by Alzheimer's disease with the poignant Promise Garden ceremony.
