Walk To End Alzheimer’s 2016

 

October 1, 2016 was our 3rd time being involved in the Walk to End Alzheimer’s event at Heather Farm Park in Walnut Creek.  We are always honored to participate in such a worthy cause.  It’s a moving, emotional day for everyone- and we’re there to respect and remember, to celebrate strength , and to lift spirits with some rock and roll!

We were there setting up before sunrise, soundcheck at 7:30, and performing in front of thousands of walk registrants starting at 8:30. We managed the stage and audio cues during the ceremony and throughout the event, and performed a live set during the walk itself.

This year, Paul Deanno (chief meteorologist at CBS) was back as MC- always a great guy to work with.

As always, we had a blast, and are proud to have been able to contribute to another year’s Walk.
