Walk MS Poughkeepsie 2021 will be held Saturday, May 1, 2021.

The event will be held virtually.

Here is what Walk organizers have to say : ” Where we walk looks different this year – but why we walk remains the same. Walk MS: Poughkeepsie is a celebration of the resiliency and strength of the MS community.

Walk with your family around your neighborhood, gather your team for a socially distanced stroll through the park or get together with friends. No matter how you celebrate, the Walk MS community will be with you every step of the way!”

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an unpredictable, often disabling disease of the central nervous system that disrupts the flow of information within the brain, and between the brain and body.

Please note that there are other Walk MS events nearby but not within the usual sportingAcause tri state area. Because the Walks are virtual this year and participants walk wherever they choose, their location becomes less relevant.
