Event summary

Join us for the exhilarating Sharp Again's Mountains for Minds event, running from July 1 to September 30, 2024! This unique national fundraiser offers participants the chance to engage in two exciting ways. You can opt for the Mountains for Minds (Virtual) challenge by choosing your favorite mountain, hill, or local high point to climb, setting your own elevation gain or distance goal. It’s a fantastic way to stay active while raising awareness for brain health.

For those who prefer an in-person experience, join Team Sharp Again at the 2024 Yonkers Marathon on September 15, 2024. This event not only promotes fitness but also contributes to an important causeβ€”funding research and initiatives aimed at preventing and treating dementia. Celebrate your achievements at the wrap-up celebration on September 21st, coinciding with World Alzheimer's Day, where we’ll showcase the incredible journeys of all participants. Help us make a difference in brain health while enjoying the great outdoors!

Organiser's Description

In this national fundraiser, we have two exciting ways to participate. You can "choose your mountain" to climb when registering for the challenge: Mountains for Minds (Virtual). This could be climbing a literal mountain, hill, or local high point, setting an elevation gain goal, or a distance goal. Choose the event type that suits you best. We encourage participants to post pictures of themselves "at their peak" to celebrate the accomplishment and to raise awareness for brain health.



If you'd prefer to join an in-person event, we have a team participating in the 2024 Yonkers Marathon on September 15, 2024. Join Team Sharp Again at:

Wrap-Up Celebration
We invite you to join us to celebrate everyone's accomplishments at the wrap-up celebration for the Mountains for Minds event on September 21st, World Alzheimer's Day. We will highlight all the incredible adventures everyone had along the way and the giant step we will have made toward Sharp Again's Mission. More information will be sent to all registrants in September!

At Sharp Again, we envision a world where dementia can be prevented and treated, and where everyone can remain cognitively healthy throughout their lives. Please help us raise funds to make that dream possible. To learn more about Sharp Again's mission and programming, please visit our website: sharpagain.org [https://sharpagain.org/].
