The Walk to End Alzheimer’s Santa Clarita Valley planning committee is actively recruiting new members for its 2026 walk.
Community members gathered on Saturday, Jan. 17, at The Flying Yolk restaurant in Valencia for a breakfast meeting hosted by the California Southland Chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association. Several guests enjoyed a welcoming morning and tasty food in a space generously provided by restaurant owner and supporter Dimitri Koulakis.
During the event, attendees learned about opportunities to join the mission of the 2026 Santa Clarita Walk to End Alzheimer’s, which will be held on Saturday, Oct. 3, at Bridgeport Park, located at 23521 Bridgeport Lane, Santa Clarita, CA 91355.
Current walk committee members shared their personal reasons for getting involved in both the planning process and the “day of” event efforts. Donna Cohen, an Alzheimer’s Association staff member and the Walk Manager, invited guests to join the Walk to End Alzheimer’s SCV committee.
Longtime planning committee members Bryan Cunningham and Dillon Lutza provided an overview of what participation entails, helping new members understand the roles and responsibilities involved.
The previous SCV Walk to End Alzheimer’s, held on Oct. 4, 2025, raised more than $120,000 for Alzheimer’s care, support, and research.
