All Stars for Alzheimer's


Five bands in three hours performed at the All Stars for Alzheimer's fundraiser in July. The crowd enjoyed a fantastic summer afternoon of music and the sites of the river.  If you missed it this year you'll want to watch for it in 2010!

Powder Puff Flag Football Fundraiser

Hats off to area college students and young professionals who raised over $3,000 and played a very impressive game in our First Annual Blondes vs. Brunettes Powder Puff fundraiser in late April. We appreciate all of your energy and support for our cause. Funds raised help us continue providing programs and services to our area families dealing with Alzheimer's disease.

Mark your calendars for April 2010 for the Second Annual Powder Puff Football game!
