This powerful, community-centered event welcomes people with ALS, families, friends, caregivers, and supporters for a joyful day of connection, remembrance, and hope. Participants often wear custom team t-shirts, carry banners in honor of loved ones, and unite in support of a shared goal-to end ALS.
