Kennesaw State University Stationed for Movement in **_Atlanta_**
Hey there, folks of Atlanta! **Have you heard the news?** It’s time to lace up those sneakers and get moving for a great cause. Kennesaw State University on the Marietta Campus is hosting a very special event on October 26 this year that promises to be both **fun** and impactful. Yes, you guessed it right! It’s **Moving Day Atlanta**, brought to you by the Parkinson’s Foundation.
What’s it all about?
For those who might not be in the know, Moving Day is an **annual walk event** organized nationally for **Parkinson’s disease** (PD). This wonderful event isn’t just about taking steps in the real world, but it’s also about stepping forward to support those affected by Parkinson’s. The funds raised are going to fuel some cutting-edge research, as well as care and education programs that aim to better the lives of individuals with Parkinson’s and their families.
On the Move for a Good Reason
Parkinson’s affects movement, and what better way to bring attention to it than by celebrating movement itself? At _**Moving Day Atlanta**_, the community comes together not just to walk but to shake a leg with a bunch of exercise demonstrations. If you’re up for a stroll, you can choose between a relaxed 1-mile walk or if you’re feeling peppy, opt for the energetic 5K!
Let’s Get Moving, Atlanta!
But wait, there’s more! After working up a sweat, Atlanta isn’t short of cool places to chill out or grab a bite. From _Live! at the Battery Atlanta_, a mere 4.47 miles from the campus, to the gastronomic treats at _Ray’s on the River_, about 5.36 miles away – there’s no shortage of fun and flavor to dive into.
Be a Part of Something Bigger
This isn’t just any day; it’s a day to **get together**, stay healthy, and support a **noble cause**. Whether you join in the fun-filled activities, contribute, or simply cheer someone on, every little action helps. Remember, it’s a celebration, and whether you are there to move, groove, or simply show love, it’s all in the spirit.
Join the Movement!
If you or someone you know is looking to see the city while supporting a cause, the Atlanta Convention & Visitors Bureau is always around to offer guidance. Not to mention, Atlanta’s thriving accommodations will ensure your stay is as pleasant as your walk. Just remember, whether names like **Atlanta Marriott Northwest at Galleria** count for a comfortable 4.11 mile drive away or those further like SpringHill Suites by Marriott at 9.39 miles, Atlanta’s hospitality is just within reach.
With all this and more, what could make October 26 more exciting? So go ahead, mark the date, clear the calendar, and let’s move to make a change!
