Moving Day
 

People who move change the world! :)

Join us for Moving Day, a day that will move you and others to speak up about Parkinson’s disease. It’s more than just a fundraising walk. It’s a day to change the state of awareness about a disease that affects so many of our family and friends. It’s a movement for everyone to join together to move the needle.

Register today to be entered into a drawing for an iPod Touch! The drawing will take place on Moving Day, right before the official start of the walk. WINNER MUST BE PRESENT TO WIN. Register for one of three inaugural Moving Day events and follow the steps for registering a team or as an individual walker. If you can’t attend, please consider making a donation to support another participant or team. Your efforts will help raise funds to improve the lives of the one million people living with Parkinson’s disease in the United States. Don’t delay – register by the following dates for each location:

• Monday, Sept. 26 for Oct. 1, 2011 Moving Day in Pittsburgh

• Monday, Oct. 10 for Oct. 16, 2011 Moving Day in Washington, D.C.

• Monday, Oct. 17 for Oct. 22, 2011 Moving Day in Rome, GA

Moving Day will feature family friendly walk routes, food, music and celebration for people of all ages and abilities. A unique feature of this fundraising event will be a Movement Fair, including demonstrations of Tai Chi, Yoga, dance, Pilates and much more, illustrating the importance of movement to people living with Parkinson’s disease.
