Quail Park of Lynnwood participated in the Snohomish County Walk to End Alzheimer’s at Boxcar Park in Everett last weekend. The community not only took part in the walk but also sponsored a pet tent, providing water and treats for pets attending the event. Executive Director Marian Sanchez highlighted the importance of supporting families affected by Alzheimer’s and raising awareness in the community. This year, Quail Park has raised and donated over $7,500 to the Alzheimer’s Association through various fundraising events. The participation included staff, residents, and families from both Tribute (memory care) and the Lodge (independent and assisted living).

Their active involvement reflects a commitment to both local and broader Alzheimer’s initiatives. Such engagements foster community spirit and promote understanding of Alzheimer’s challenges. Quail Park's efforts contribute significantly to the ongoing fight against the disease.
