Idaho Falls Walk to End Alzheimer’s Expects Record Attendance

“This year, we expect over 700 people to be at this walk,” Scott Holmes, chair of the Alzheimer’s Association in eastern Idaho, told KID NewsRadio. “So, if that’s the case that will make this the largest single event fundraiser in eastern Idaho.”

The event aims to bring awareness and raise funds to combat the growing impact of Alzheimer’s and Dementia in the United States. Holmes said Idaho is seeing a rise in cases across the state and will continue to see the upward trend in the next five to 10 years.
