Want to stay active and support a great cause?
Join fellow HDFSers on September 25th for an annual Beavers Unite Against Alzheimer's Walk event.🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️

This is a fundraiser event to raise money and awareness for Alzheimer's disease and get outside at the same time🌞🌞 In previous years this team has had a strong OSU presence at this event- see photos below! With course lengths up to 1 mile, the hope is to have this team walk in person this year!

Find out more about our Beavers team, sign up to join the walk, and/or donate to the fundraiser here: https://act.alz.org/site/TR/Walk2021/OR-OregonampSWWashington?pg=team&fr_id=14724&team_id=670578&skip_login_page=true
