Team Page ForJus' Whistlin' For Ellen

Why We Ride:

Alzheimer’s touches all of us, and it will take all of us to end it. 

We are riding in remembrance of Ellen Glee Scheele (Debbie Duggan's late mother). Ellen was the type of person we all hope to be --  caring, compassionate and always giving of her Time and Talents. Unfortunately, Alzheimer's disease took her sooner than we would have liked and tremendously affected her quality of life during her last few years.

Alzheimer’s disease is the sixth-leading cause of death in the United States. More than 6 million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s, and over 11 million are acting as their caregivers. 

We are going the distance for all those affected while raising funds and awareness to advance research toward the first survivor of Alzheimer’s. 

Right now, there is no shortage of ideas in Alzheimer’s research — only dollars. But together, we can help change that. 100 percent of the funds raised from this event will go toward the Association’s efforts to discover methods of treatment and prevention for Alzheimer's and other dementias.
