September is an important month for Parkinson's disease in that other cities here in the U.S. and Canada are also hosting Run/Walks. This is a great opportunity for each of these areas to create a tremendous amount of publicity for Parkinson's disease. Please do what you can to support each of these races and if know of people in the area, push them to attend the event. Righ here in Washington, D.C., we are expecting well over a 1000 participants. One being Senator Pell of Rhode Island who has Parkinson's disease. It is an important time for support of the Udall Bill. Coming to D.C. and showing you care is essential. Make a weekend of it and visit your Congressman and attend the Run/Jog/Walk. Sunday, September 22, 1996 8:00 a.m. in West Potomac Park, right next to the Lincoln Memorial.
