2026 Walk to End Alzheimer's Early Bird Check-In Event

About This Event

Early bird check-in for the Detroit Walk to End Alzheimer's. Team captains and volunteers can drop off fundraising money and pick up zoo tickets.

What to Expect

• 1.Arrive a bit before 9 am and head straight to the check-in desk at the Michigan Chapter HQ to drop off fundraising money and pick up zoo tickets; have your team name and any donor receipts handy to speed things up.
• 2.Expect a volunteer-heavy crowd, with a supportive and collaborative vibe rather than flashy energy, so you can blend in even if you are new.
• 3.Bring funds organized and ready for counting; staff will tally donations at the desk, so know your team totals or carry an easily countable amount.
• 4.Parking on Telegraph Road can fill up, so give yourself extra time and consider using rideshare or public transit if possible; signs will direct you to the check-in area.
• 5.If you are a first-timer, ask staff where to go and who to connect with; this event is designed to get volunteers set up quickly and there will be people to point you toward the next steps for the Walk.
