Local musician Karen Wheelock is organizing Sunday’s benefit concert. A multi-year participant in the Walk to End Alzheimer’s, the issue is a personal one.
“After seeing both my grandmother and mother diagnosed with Alzheimer's, I decided it's time to do something about it,” said event organizer Wheelock. “As a 32 year old, I've been faced with something most people don't go through until later in their life, and I strive to bring awareness to my generation while helping raise money for Alzheimer's research.”
This family-friendly event is open to the public. A $7 donation to the Alzheimer’s Association is recommended. For more information, visit the event’s Facebook page.
