The event serves not only as a fundraiser but also as a community-driven experience, uniting people in their shared mission to fight Alzheimer’s disease.
The Challenge
The Walk to End Alzheimer’s required a seamless audio solution that could support multiple key aspects of the event, including:
- Clear Communication Across a Large Outdoor Venue – Ensuring that walkers, volunteers, and event coordinators received consistent and high-quality audio coverage throughout the course.
