Families, caregivers and community supporters have an opportunity to come together this weekend for a cause that affects households across Arkansas.

The Alzheimer's Association's Walk to End Alzheimer's in Hot Springs Village is scheduled for Saturday, October 24, 2026.

The event supports awareness and fundraising for Alzheimer's care, research and assistance for people affected by the disease.

More than a community walk

Walk to End Alzheimer's events bring together people living with memory-related conditions, family caregivers, friends and those honoring loved ones.

Many events feature a Promise Garden ceremony symbolizing the different ways Alzheimer's touches people's lives.

They also help residents learn about community support and the continuing need for care resources.

Planning to attend

The event listing identifies a morning gathering in Hot Springs Village, with 9 a.m. listed as the start time.

A third-party calendar lists 1105 DeSoto Boulevard as the location, but participants should confirm the precise check-in location and schedule with the organizer before traveling.

The listing does not specify a registration charge; fundraising participation is encouraged.

A timely Senior Connections feature

For readers caring for aging relatives, the walk provides both a way to show support and an opportunity to connect with others affected by Alzheimer's.

Those who cannot attend may still wish to learn about the Alzheimer's Association's educational and caregiver resources.

The October 24 date also makes this event a natural addition to 501 Daily's October 23–25 weekend calendar.
