APDA CT Optimism Walk for Parkinson’s – Westport

Saturday, September 19, 2026
Sherwood Island State Park – East Beach

Walkers will come together nationwide in 2026 to step towards supporting all people affected by Parkinson’s disease. Your fundraising dollars at the Optimism Walks will go directly toward the local community, expanding local program and services to help more people with Parkinson’s disease live life to the fullest, as well as fund cutting-edge research to help find better treatments and ultimately, a cure.
