On October 30, the Alzheimer's Association is having a walk here in Orlando around Lake Eola. Registration is at 8am; the walk starts an hour later. It's a great event and a simple activity that may help bring more attention (and funding) to the cause. Anyone can participate as either an individual or in a group.
(TheDailyCity.com contributing writer Samir and I are walking in memory of my grandfather, who passed away from Alzheimer's two years ago. Feel free to join - or donate to - our team, Team Chaya)

Background:
Currently more than 5 million Americans have Alzheimer's, and 78 million baby boomers are at risk – unless we find a way to change the course of this disease.
Join the walk and get on the move to end Alzheimer’s. The Alzheimer's Association Memory Walk® is the nation's largest event to raise awareness and funds to fight Alzheimer’s disease. The money raised will go toward research to treat and prevent Alzheimer’s, and programs to improve the lives of millions of Americans.
