April is Parkinson’s Awareness Month and as per our tradition, we ask the City of Las Cruces and Dona Ana County to read a proclamation at one of their council meetings.
It would be great if some of our members could attend one or both of these events in a show of support.
- Monday, April 3 at 1:00 pm, City of Las Cruces – Council Chambers at City Hall, 700 N. Main Street
- Tuesday, April 4 at 9:00 am, Dona Ana County Commission Chambers, 845 N. Motel Blvd. Las Cruces
The meetings begin with their usual business and proclamations are placed at the top of the agendas. PD members will be asked to come to the front of the room and the proclamation is read. We are given the opportunity to speak
This year, we have many activities to report:
- Regular support group meeting, third Tuesday
