Milestone: Local group walks the ‘Walk to End Alzheimer’s’

Members of the Home Instead Ohana Heroes “Walk to End Alzheimer’s” team are decked out in purple as they participate in the 2021 Walk to End Alzheimer’s. Because of the increase in COVID-19 cases on the Olympic Peninsula, many local teams chose the “walk where you are” option. As part of their effort to help raise funds and awareness of the the national Alzheimer’s Association, Home Instead Ohana Heroes members met in the old JCPenney parking lot and walked along West Washington Street east to Sequim Avenue, crossed a couple of streets, meandered through the Sequim Farmers and Artisans Market, then headed back down Washington Street to the starting point.

The Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s is the world’s largest fundraiser for Alzheimer’s care, support and research. Submitted photo
