The Prince George IG Wealth Management Walk for Alzheimer’s will return as an in-person event on May 29.

The annual fundraiser for the Alzheimer Society of B.C. was put on hold for two years during the COVID-19 pandemic. The event will start at the YMCA of Northern B.C., located at 2020 Massey Dr. Registration starts at 1 p.m., and the walk runs from 1:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.

“We are so grateful to all the volunteers who help with the Walk. Every year, we are deeply impressed by the generosity and dedication they display when it comes to supporting British Columbians on the dementia journey,” Cathryn France of the Alzheimer Society of B.C. said in a statement issued on Tuesday. “Our volunteers are the main force behind our event. They raise awareness about the disease and they help us make a difference in the lives of people affected by dementia.”

To register or make a donation, go online to alzbc.org/walk. Participants who don’t want to take part in the in-person event can also sign up to walk at time and date of their choice.
