📢 Thank YOU ALL for supporting this year's IG Wealth Management Walk for Alzheimer's. Together, we’ve raised more than $115,000 and logged over 1,000 kilometres in support of people living with dementia and their care partners, and we’re not done yet! To put that distance into perspective, it’s like walking all the way to Québec City. 💙

Our Active Living group in Owen Sound has planted their garden at the New Life Centre. They are looking forward to tending to the plants. 🌱

Did you know that gardening actively reduces stress levels and calms anxiety-even with the weeds? Sun, heat, rain, and some love will hopefully bring us a bountiful harvest in the fall. 🌞🌦️ 😎

We’re proud to celebrate the incredible success of Seasons Retirement Communities for your incredible support of this year's IG Wealth Management Walk for Alzheimer's! 🎉

Between May 20th and May 30th, the team at Seasons Retirement Communities, including the management team and retirement community members, laced up, tracked their steps, and got moving together. 👟

The result: an amazing 736,236 steps, roughly 560 kms, in just 10 days! 🥳

To mark this incredible achievement, the team came together at the Owen Sound Walk location, crossing the finish line side by side in true community spirit.

A huge congratulations to everyone who participated. Your energy, commitment, and teamwork made this achievement possible. Here’s to many more steps together in support of the families impacted by Alzheimer's and other dementias in our community! 👏💙
