Walk to End Alzheimers 2011 - Fort Worth


Date: October 15, 2011 - 8:00 a.m.

Location: Trinity Park (a beautiful walk through the trees and along the Trinity River just west of downtown Fort Worth)

Parking: In the Farrington Field Parking Lot, a couple of blocks east of the University Drive / Lancaster intersection.

Length:  apx. 2.5 miles

For additional information on the FW walk and others in the North Texas area click here. Trinity Park is a beautiful venue. The Walk is a great way to spend a fall Saturday morning with family and friends of all ages. Join the Walk!

I'll be acting as Net Control for this ARES public service event. Last year the RACES van was located in the Farrington Field parking lot. I think we'll be using the white box truck/van with "RACES" on the side - or look for the antennas. If you're around and spot us, walk by and wave or say hello! Since the map appears to show that the start finish is now in the MIDDLE of the course, we may park closer to that - don't know yet.  The Walk to End Alzheimer's logo is a trademark of the Alzheimer's Association.
