MARQUETTE, Mich. (WZMQ) – Every year, the residents of Brookridge Heights take part in a point five K run/walk to benefit the Alzheimer’s Association.

It’s a precursor to the walk to end Alzheimer’s, which takes place in September. The point five k will take place on the grounds of Brookridge Heights, and if you think that’s a short distance, remember that it’s still longer than 5 football fields.

The point five K is a manageable distance suitable for most of the residents. It’s also a big party with live entertainment, costumes, and great food.

“Our point 5K is kind of kicking off our season, and our fundraising for the “Walk to End Alzheimer’s” in September. So we’re going to be raising money, we’re going to be dressed in purple, we are going to dance and laugh, and eat all sorts of goodies, as we walk through our point 5K,” said Jennifer Legault, Executive Director of Brookridge Heights.

The point 5K will be held this Tuesday, June 10th, at 10 am at Brookridge Heights
