Alzheimer's Association Cruise for the Cure

The Alzheimer’s Association Hudson Valley/ Rockland/ Westchester, NY Chapter hosted the Cruise for the Cure on board the Cornucopia Destiny recently (on Friday, April 30th). Guests enjoyed breathtaking views of the Manhattan skyline, bid in the silent auction, and danced to the live music of The Gerard Carelli Orchestra. The cruise was a fund and awareness raiser for Alzheimer's Association programs that provide much needed services to local families affected by Alzheimer’s disease.

The event honored Vincent “Enzo” Simone, local architect, founder of The Regulars, and creator of 10 Mountains in 10 Years: Quest for a Cure. Simone received the Renee Pollack Memorial Award for Distinguished Service. Over ten years, Simone will have climbed the world’s tallest mountains, drawing attention to Alzheimer’s disease in tribute to his mother.

The Alzheimer’s Association is the leading voluntary health organization in Alzheimer’s research, care, and support. Our mission is to eliminate Alzheimer’s disease through the advancement of research; to provide and enhance care and support for all affected; and to reduce the risk of dementia through the promotion of brain health. Our vision is a world without Alzheimer’s. For more information please visit www.alz.org/hudsonvalley.
