2024 GROUP RIDE: MEDIA COVERAGE
Ride to End ALZ South Carolina is one of the biggest media events of the year at the Alzheimer's Association South Carolina Chapter. Because our cyclists take on such an intense physical challenge and raise an incredible amount of funds for the cause, our local media partners love to come out to cover it.
We are immensely grateful to all of the cyclists and volunteers who took time during the 2024 event to share their stories and their ride experience through media interviews!
Take a look at our 2024 event week media coverage! We'll continue to add links as they are available.
