 2010 Manulife Walk for Memories

 Join Our Wonderful Indoor Musical Walk
 Allen Lambert Galleria in Brookfield Place

On the morning of Saturday, January 30 join us for a wonderful 45 minute indoor walk through the underground PATH in downtown Toronto. Come along to Allen Lambert Galleria in Brookfield Place, (formerly BCE Place, see MAP) to celebrate and help us raise $400,000 to support families dealing with Alzheimer's.

Come and tie a yellow shoelace around your finger to honour and remember those in your life who’ve been touched by Alzheimer’s… and to have fun. We'll have great entertainment, goodies and prizes for the best walkers and teams BUT best of all you get to come in a fancy dress costume of your choice - Yes, we want YOU to DRESS UP (see who turned up at Walk 2009)

Here are a few details to get you going.

 

 FUNDRAISING

 FIND YOUR COSTUME FOR WALK DAY

Start digging through your wardrobe to find a zany costume, it can be anything you like, and the more outrageous the better e.g. you can come as a look-a-like (think Elvis, Marilyn Monroe, Lucille Ball etc.), in a costume from your favourite musical era or in your national dress.  It can be anything  you like...and the more outrageous the better.     

Whether you're walking solo, with family or with a Team come DRESSED UP in a costume...and celebrate with us on Saturday, January 30, 2010.
