USS CHALLENGER ATTENDS CHARITY WALK FOR ALZHEIMER’S AND DEMENTIA

On stardate 202509.28 (September 28, 2025), members of the USS Challenger participated in AristaCare's 3rd Annual Walk to Remember. This yearly event raises awareness for Alzheimer’s and dementia while honoring members of our community impacted by the illnesses.

The walk was held in Whiting, New Jersey, at World War II Veterans Memorial Park. There, we saw many tributes to local service members and relics of the armed forces like Army jeeps and trucks turned into interactive tourist attractions and even playgrounds for children.

Members of our ship were led by Admiral Bob Vosseller and the event drew a crowd of a few dozen participants and volunteers—along with us for the walk was Mayor Joseph Hankins. Some volunteers offered NJ mental health resources and information on Alzheimer’s and dementia.

As STARFLEET members, we’re always eager to support charitable causes in our community. We look forward to next year’s Walk to Remember. Next Ships monthly meeting on October 5th, 2025, Sunday at 1: PM. at 1000 Bay Blvd., Seaside Heights, NJ. Contact us at Cell Phone # 732-575-6904 or email at BillSchmidt1000@aol.com
